Experience with Horses
I have been riding since around 12 years old. Since then I’ve done some random around the stable jobs, after gaining experience I was able to handle and ride the more difficult horses around me and have done this ever since. I have since handled stallions, large and behavioral issues having horses.
In my first groom job I worked as a groom and flat rider. I had to care for 40 horses every day (mucking out, stabling, turning out, blanketing, grooming, plaiting). On competitions day I would groom at either Showjumping or endurance competitions. In this stable I handled and rode stallions, youngsters and other horses.
I also own 2 youngsters that were trained by me and my trainer from day one. A 1yo colt and 4yo gelding.

Strengths and Weaknesses
One of my biggest strengths is that I am very willing to work in any kind of situation, making quick decisions to the best of my abilities. My absolute love of horses also means that I would take care of your horses just as I would care for my own, without cutting any corners.
One of my biggest weaknesses is that I am a nightowl and tend to work best at night, but that also gives me the advantage on foal-watch and very early morning competitions.
Something I’d like to improve on is my riding and training skills, which I am always looking to improve.
