I started riding horses when I was 8 years old continued with lessons and working at an equine summer camp until age 18. I also worked at a private facility providing daily care, and first aid to multiple horses. I then went to Johnson & Wales University for Equine Business Management/Riding with a specialization in Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies. During the school year I work at Johnson & Wales University Equine Center where I maintain daily care for the horses. During the summers I worked at multiple different facilities, one at an all girls summer camp providing lessons and managing a team of instructors and care and health of the horses. The other facility was a PATH certified center where I was the director of their summer camp as well as part of their horse care team.
