Summary

I am finishing my junior year at Central Washington University and looking for both summer and longer-term employment. I’ve had a variety of jobs and experiences through my equestrian community over the last 7+ years. These experiences have shaped my work habits and required thorough and meticulous attention. I’m unafraid to ask questions, allowing me to learn and excel at learning new tasks. I enjoy working with animals and I’m comfortable working in both indoor and outdoor settings, as well as being on my feet and active for long periods of time.
