My experience as a young professional was all on the ground and applied learning. While I don't have a degree in a horse related field, I received my BA in Spanish from California State University, Channel Islands in May of 2023.

Turn out, blanket, feed, grain, supplement, tack, exercise, ride, groundwork, cleaning stalls at competitions, grooming/bathing/clipping at shows, client relations, hauling, competing, etc.

I have experience working for a 5* event barn and many upper level 3DE trainers in Temecula, CA. I have worked for and trained under Tamie Smith, Nick Cwick, Kaylawna Smith-Cook, Chloe Smyth, and have been exposed to 5* working environments since 2018. Most of my experience as a serious groom took place in CA but this past year I have had the thrilling experience of working for a private client at their seasonal farms in Maryland and South Carolina.

Comfortable with young/green horses, has handled studs, and extremely proficient in working horses from the ground. I have experience working horse trials/jumper/dressage shows with over 30+ horses needing to be cared for and show ready. I keep a clean space and equipment tidy, very detail oriented. White boards, charts, label makers, and lists are my best friend!!

I have done everything from school up to USEA Modified level on my own mare to being the first ride over fences/on the flat to a young OTTB. I am very comfortable with the easy going and the quirky ones of all ages and disciplines. I have a heavy dressage and eventing background, but I have done everything from equine therapy from reining and breed specific disciplines.

I have competed up to USEA Novice (recognized) with my mare, but have schooled and/or worked just about every facility that runs in area VI. I have competed in many combined tests and unrecgonized/schooling with both my horse and other trainer/client mounts. I have been hired out by many former trainers/clients to be their groom for their FEI competitions.
