Qualifications
I am detail oriented to a perfectionist flaw. From the stall bed to the entry gate at the ring. If the water bucket isn’t clean enough for me to drink out of it than it isn’t clean. I don’t have any paper degree but my years of knowledge under multiple disciplines bring an extensive outlook to the job as an experienced groom.
Duties of Current Occupation
Contract horse groom at shows on the side. 30+ yrs experience with a variety of breeds in professional show environments. Personally have shown at the Morgan World Championships, and AQHA Congress and World Ch
Equine Work Experience
My horse handling experience covers Throughbreeds as a late teen, early twenties horse obsessed girl. At private farms and two summers at Pimlico Race Track. American Saddlebred & Morgan’s experience from yearlings, to starting colts , teaching lessons to the show ring. Quarter Horse and Warmbloods in the hunter and jumper world from show experience to rehabilitation from injury.
Specialities
Extensive knowledge in Equine first aid from Admin meds to IV’s, as well as holistic approaches. A strong believer in healing the complete horse with hot and cold therapy, magma wave, PEMF , Chrio and excellent farrier work. I thrive on detail, at the farm and show. My practices are the same in both avenues. The project or finished horse is a true reflection of its environment. I look forward to possibility of sharing my love of horse care with your facility.
Type of Ride Work
I’ll be the first to admit, it’s been awhile since I’ve ridden. I love ring work. Bending flexing and patterns are a great joy to me. I will gladly put hours of hack time in. Please just don’t ask me to go on a trail ride.
