Summary
I’ve adored horses and all animals since I was a little girl!. I’ve been around horses as much as I could since I was born. I had a pony of my own from my aunt when I was a toddler but she sadly got sold after 3 years. I’ve been trail riding almost every summer since I was 10-11. I have experience taking care of almost 50 horses on a daily basis for over a year when I worked at Empire Farms. I have experience taking groups out on trail rides (kids-elders)and engaging and communicating while riding. I’m not a professional when it comes to horses but I have the desire and motivation to fulfill whatever position it may be to learn more about them and gain knowledge. I will strive to be the best at whatever job I’m given and will enjoy doing it!
