Equine Work Experience
I grew up riding but have not ridden in quite a while - I’d be happy to get back to it but it’s not part of my job-seeking criteria. I have handled a lot of Thoroughbreds of all ages and love a challenge. I am happy to just be around horses and take care of them.

Type of Ride Work
Able to back and bring on young horses. Have competed on a junior national level in show-jumping and equitation competing in heights up to 1.10m, but 1.20m at home.
Competition Details
Have competed from age 11 until high school graduation at age 18. Rode at a national pony rider level in show-jumping and equitation from 2010-2013 after which I went to university.
