Equine Work Experience
I have been riding for over 18 years with a Hunter/jumper background, with some Western discipline knowledge. I first showed in 2016 at Win-A-Gin in Metamora, Michigan where I placed second in the B-Circuit jumper ring. I last showed at Valley Park Stables in Des Moines, Iowa where I placed 1st in the D Series Jumper division. I have owned/leased over 5 horses over the years with ages ranging from a weanling to 17 years old. I focus on building a strong foundation of trust and respect with the horses that I work with and pride myself on being a quiet rider.
Specialities
I have experience working with foals, weanlings, yearlings, stallions, and broodmares. I have experience leading a team, can handle a high turn out and am able to muck out and keep a tidy yard. I specialize in natural horsemanship with a heavy focus on trust building between myself and the horse I am working with
Type of Ride Work
I have the most experience in the Hunter/Jumper with slightly above average knowledge of Western Pleasure riding. I am looking to expand my riding in Eventing and Dressage.
Competition Details
I worked with my trainer to help her organize and run barn shows. I competed in B Circuit riding competitions through high school. Last showed at Valley Park Stables in Des Moines Iowa for their Hunter/Jumper D Series in August 2024
