With over a decade of hands-on experience working with horses in both practical and performance environments, I bring a deep understanding of horse behavior, training techniques, and stable management.

Since 2011, I have worked as a rider, trainer, and groom within an equestrian stunt group, where I was responsible not only for training horses for film and live performances, but also for their daily care and wellbeing. My responsibilities included feeding, grooming, tack maintenance, conditioning, and preparing horses for high-stress environments such as film sets or shows. I am well-versed in working with different temperaments and breeds and always prioritize the safety and comfort of the animal.

Additionally, I have experience teaching horseback riding to students of various skill levels, using classical riding techniques. I take great pride in helping riders build confidence and form a respectful connection with the horse. My foundation in classical equestrian traditions has taught me patience, precision, and calm communication with the animal.

I am comfortable working in team environments, taking direction, and handling physically demanding tasks. I am also reliable, observant, and highly committed to the wellbeing of the horses under my care.

I would be honored to contribute my knowledge, experience, and dedication to your team. Thank you for considering my application. I would be happy to discuss how I can support your stable or program.
