As mentioned before I have been working with and around horses since the age of 8. I graduated with a bachelors degree in environmental studies and competed on my schools IHSA team for 4 years.

I have been riding since 8 and competing on a local circuit as well as a few AA shows. I Began working in a professional environment in college working weekends caring for 50 horses turn in turn out feeding, wound care etc. I also managed the care of my schools IHSA horses before shows making sure the 25 students of various abilities learned how to clip, bathe and properly groom. I have currently been working at a show barn based in Western MA and Wellington FL full time for 2 years.

I have worked handling young horses and foals as well as showing them for inspection. Currently I oversee the care of 30 horses cleaning stalls and doing chores, switching and organizing turn in/out, blanketing when needed, administering meds, first aid, cleaning paddocks daily, basic farm maintenance and repairs, and riding when the opportunity is given. I pride myself on keeping a professional appearance and attitude as well as maintaining a tidy work environment.

I have ridden all types of horses from green horses to quirky ponies to seasoned show horses. Mainly competed in equitation and hunters, however I have begun to transition to also showing in the jumpers. I am currently in the process of developing a young pony as my first resale project and would love to continue developing show horses in future endeavors.

I have competed in local shows, AA shows and IHSA. Skills include and are not limited to lunging, bathing, flatting, tacking and getting horses to ring on time.
