Duties of Current Occupation

I ride and train horses as well as teach lessons and camps to kids with ages ranging from 5 to 16I have experience in the IEA and went to Nationals in 2020. I was in Pony Club for around 8 years and have my C2 certification.

Equine Work Experience

I began working in a barn at age 6, where my mother managed. My responsibilities included assisting with horse camp and lessons, barn upkeep, and riding until I was 15. At 16, I moved to Richmond, VA, and worked at Stillmeadows Equestrian Center for three years, where I rode, groomed, handled turnout, assisted the vet and farrier, ran the summer camp program, and taught kids aged 5-12. In January 2023, I joined Freedom Farm as a rider. There, I gained extensive experience riding a range of horses from young and unbroke to seasoned competitors in the hunter world. I handled various tasks including turnout, feeding, and mucking out. My role at Freedom Farm sharpened my riding skills and deepened my understanding of equine management. I continued at Freedom Farm until August 2023 and have recently been working as barn staff and a camp counselor, enhancing my leadership abilities and equine knowledge.

Specialities

I have been a head riding instructor for a riding camp program. I have also worked with lots and lots of young horses in the past on horsemanship skills as well as horse show training

Type of Ride Work

I will ride anything I'm able to get my hands on. Whether it be a green horse, seasoned lesson pony needing a school, or an old professional horse needing exercise. I love starting babies and getting to work with them and transforming them into real show horses brings me great joy. I have lots of experience with flat work and jumping exercises as well.

Competition Details

I have helped run numerous IEA and IHSA shows whether it be announcing, show secretary, or schooling ponies for kids. I also have ridden and groomed at shows along the east and west coast of the US in the hunters and jumpers.
