Summary
Dedicated equine professional with 14 years of experience. I am attentive to horse care and quick thinking. I take direction well, and manage my time wisely. I have been a working student since the age of 13 and have gained multiple skills along the way which include but are not limited to horse nutrition, wound care, the ability to notice when something is off with a horse, scheduling vet checks, riding for clients and managing all aspects of the barn. I was given the opportunity to work in Texas managing a barn with 30 horses where I was trusted to care for all of the horses, ride them to keep them in shape and maintain their daily nutrition while owner and clients were out of town as well as hauling to and from horse shows. My time at Rood and Riddle was short but I gained plenty of knowledge as a Vet Tech and was extremely independent and trustworthy. I had a tremendous amount of experience with pre and post op surgical patients ranging from Colics to Orthopedic Repairs, I had experience with our Reproductive section as well.
