No, but I am hoping to become a licenced instructor once I finish my bachelors degree.

I have done trainee-jobs at stables, which included turnout, mucking out, riding, helping out customers, giving lessons to kids etc. I have been riding young horses for my trainer Emma Ämmälä in Finland since 2020. I trained at Tampaja Gård in Finland for two weeks when I was 14. This included working at the livery stable, turning out horses, blanketing them and taking blankets off, feeding, carrying water, mucking out and the odd fix-up job at the yard. I also rode two of the livery horses to school them during this period and after it. Prior to that I worked as a summer camp employee at Palmun ratsutalli in Finland, so I worked lots with both children and adults and had long, busy days at the stables. I work well and quickly under pressure thanks to this.

I have worked lots with children and green horses since I myself was a child. I have worked with foals and newly backed horses, retraining etc. Throughout the years I have ridden lots of "difficult" ponies and horses and am extremely patient with issues such as loading onto a trailer etc.

I have ridden lots of green and young horses, former trotters, and some horses that could be considered problem horses. I have competed up to national level 90cm on a small pony when I was 15-16, trained up from the 60s myself. I have also competed in dressage, and can do intermediate level dressage tests with ease, + flying changes. Mostly, however, I have worked with young horses and given them good foundations for the future. Have jumped cross country in training.

I have been competing since I was 11, both in dressage and showjumping. I have been a groom, and I worked at Helsinki International Horse Show in 2022 in the warm-up group, which included timing warmups and making sure riders were at the show arena in time, but not too early.
