Hello!
I am looking for a role to utilise the knowledge and skills I gained over the course of my degree. With a solid foundation in Equine Science, garnered through my undergraduate studies, I am driven by a passion for research and a commitment to continuous learning. My academic journey has equipped me with a deep understanding of equine physiology, behaviour, and management, while also fostering a robust skill set in scientific inquiry and analysis.
I have a particular interest in the reproductive sector, gaining experience working at a top UK showjumping stud, although with my horse we are more interested in keeping all 4 feet on the ground!
I am open minded to a variety of positions, I would be interested in anything that continues to teach me and allows me to follow my passion of working with horses.
