Experience with Horses

I have been surrounded by horses since a very young age, and my passion for them has only grown over the years. I’ve been fortunate enough to ride for many years, gaining a deep understanding of horse care, riding techniques, and the bond between horse and rider. In addition to my personal riding experience, I’ve had the opportunity to work at polo stables, where I gained hands-on experience in bringing polo ponies back into work for the polo season. This has allowed me to develop a strong skill set in managing and training horses, ensuring they are in top condition for their competitive careers.

 

Key Skills

I am highly skilled at working both independently and as part of a team, adapting to different environments and tasks with ease. I’m accustomed to managing a busy workday, efficiently prioritizing tasks to ensure everything is completed on time. My experience includes riding one horse while leading two others simultaneously, which has honed my multitasking abilities and focus. I take pride in my incredible attention to detail and am a highly organized individual who consistently works to the highest standards, ensuring that everything I do meets or exceeds expectations. Highly adaptable and a quick leaner.
