Riding for me, is something I enjoy on various levels. It is both my hobby and a small business that I do alongside my Bachelor of Science degree.
I currently freelance ride a small team of horses from pre-breaking to FEI level. I previously have competed to FEI 2** level on my last competition mount and recently took on an OTT gelding over the last year during COVID-19 lockdown. I've owned him from the day he finished racing and the first ride I had on him made me fall involve, solidifying our partnership.
As a team we have progressed to EvA95 within one season and believe he will be on the cusp of FEI level at the completion of this calendar year. Competing to me is more than the riding component. I love watching and learning from higher level competitors, volunteer for roles and ensure the OC is treated correctly.
