I was also employed as a riding instructor and barn manager, teaching lessons ranging from beginner to advanced at New Horizon Stables (Schenectady NY). I have groomed for show barns at HITS (Saugerties NY), as well as local shows in the upstate NY/Capital District area. My experience also includes working as horse show night watch employee, which involved monitoring show horses at various horse shows throughout the northeast, as well as WEF, Duke and RMI horse shows in Raleigh NC, and Traders Point in Zionsville IN. Most recently, I have been teaching lessons, ranging from beginner to advanced and from age 5 to adult. I was also acting as assistant coach for Boston College, and coaching IEA teams.
