Qualifications
I have a standard manual driving licence. I graduated university last summer with an Industrial Design degree.
Duties of Current Occupation
I have worked for a 4* eventer a few summers ago on a yard of 8 horses, including 6 youngsters. I mostly completed general yard duties, hacked, lunged and looked after the yard when others were at competitions.
Equine Work Experience
Working on an event yard and playing and competing in polo at university. I had my own horse for four years and volunteered at the livery yards she was at, I mainly focused on dressage but was also worked with other horses, including hunters, ex racers and riding school ponies. I have some experience in the process of rehabbing a horse as I had to bring back my own from a check ligament injury. I can confidently complete any yard duties including lunging and plaiting.
Specialities
I have worked with eventers from 4 year olds to 4* eventers helping to keep them fit and turned out to the required standard. During my time at university I played polo and so have experience with their tack and playing polo.
Type of Ride Work
I mostly hacked and did dressage with my own horse. Since then I have taken up polo and have been doing that for the last five years. I also spent a summer working on an event yard riding 4* eventers and youngsters. I also have experience with ex racers.
Competition Details
I competed in dressage and when working on the event yard would get horses ready to travel. I have also competed in university polo competitions.
