Summary

I work in the equestrian industry as a professional rider and trainer and own a small business producing young sports horses for competition. As an active member of British Eventing and British Dressage, I constantly try to improve my own riding as well as helping others reach their equestrian goals.

I am also a qualified translator through the Chartered Institute of Linguists which makes me an excellent written communicator with an eye for detail.
