Summary

Hello,

I'm Kate Holte. I graduated from Meredith Manor Equestrian Centre in Waverly, West Virginia in March 2020.

I graduated with a Riding Master VI and a Training Level 3 Certificate (both the highest level of riding and training the Manor offers). I have an extensive amount of farrier knowledge, along with experience managing a full-care barn.

I have an excellent sense of feel and understanding for the horse, giving me the patience to train and bring them along correctly.

I have a very detailed understanding for correct farrier services, and equine conformation. I can confidently trim, shape and nail shoes, assisting the horse to move to the best of his physical ability.

My organizational skills allow me to keep a full barn of horses happy, clean, and fed, along with managing the students working in the barn on a daily basis.

I'm a wonderful asset to have around, as I'm a great team player, willing to do anything, and learn quickly to help your facility prosper. The horses, their health, and mental state are my main priority in this industry.

Please see attached resume for further information skills and training. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you so much for your time.
