Duties of Current Occupation
With my expereince I am prepared to do the following; care for many horses of all temperments, manage a barn, books, and work for/with/or lead other staff, keep a training/riding regamine, access and treat minor health issues and wellbeing of horses.
Equine Work Experience
I've had horses since infancy and was riding on my own as young as 4. I've ridden and taken lessons at several different barns in several different disiplines throught childhood and adolecence. I started training/starting my own horses around 12 years old. At 14 I was hired on as a trainer at Foxwood Farms, a local arabian breeder to me at the time. I started all the horses she had at the time, roughly 10 horses in the 3 years I was training there, till the farm wad sold. I made commision on the sales of all the horses, and competed for them as well at local events and AHA events. Afterwards I became a local trainer where ever I was living, specializing in problem horses, and have been since 2017. For my current job I am a Zookeeper in Mississippi and I care for 9 different species of animals. I care for the hoofstock animals which includes Grevy's Zebras. As a keeper the wellbeing, enrichment, and heath of every animal is my daily responsiblity and I enjoy every day.
Specialities
Im 25 and I have experience in a wide variety of disiplines, and a moderate amount of show experience. I have handled foals, started colts and adult horses, finished horses and I have a knack for "problem horses". I have no tolerance for owners and riders who blame the horse. I pick up routines almost immidietly and work very quickly. My outgoing nature in combination with my desire to maintain and produce great horses, and have a efficient work enviornment usually equals a happy barn.
