Qualifications
I rode for Missouri State University's hunt seat equestrian team for a few years and excelled as a varsity member
Duties of Current Occupation
Stable hand for multiple equine facilities, English and western, Arabian and breeding barns alike. Morning and evening feeds for 60+ horses Show groom for A rated shows Braiding and just recently started full body and trace clipping
Equine Work Experience
Foals and green horses, feeding and grooming, stalls and turnout, basic barn chores and cleaning tasks, limited showing but constant lessons, worked in a show environment
Specialities
I've worked at an Arabian breeding farm that was highly successful in showing and training. I've handled young 2 and 3 year olds and socialized babies to be more comfortable with people. My experience with stallions are limited, though I am eager to learn. I've also started green thoroughbreds off the track and have a soft spot for thoroughbreds
Type of Ride Work
I've ridden hunter jumpers, jumpers, and a select few of dressage and reining horses. I've fallen in love with the hunt world but have a bigger desire to get into the speed of the jumpers
Competition Details
yes! I worked for rated shows in Chicago that the barn I rode at frequently attended. I also have a few years of competition experience outside of IHSA, but funds has stopped me from doing any larger show. It has always been my dream to compete at rated shows.
