About Me
I am young event rider based in Wiltshire I started riding at a young age and had my own ponies as mum had her own horses. After finishing school I went to Hartpury Equine College for 2 years where I studied an Equine Diploma in Equine Management achieving a D*D*D qualification. I really enjoyed my 2 years there, the facilities were fantastic with lots of opportunities to compete and progress my knowledge further.
After Hartpury I then spent a year as a working pupil for Kitty King 5* event rider. This was a fantastic experience where I gained lots more knowledge and really progressed with my riding. I travelled to events with Kitty to groom for her and at events where I was riding my own horse Rolo, had the benefit of Kitty coaching me in the warm up. I was able to benefit from daily lessons with Kitty or her mum Jane, which really improved my riding and my horses performance.
Whilst based in Beckington I ran a small livery yard and worked as a freelance groom and rider across the local Wiltshire and Somerset area. I had the pleasure of working with some lovely people and their horses.
In May 24, I moved to base myself with Coral Hardman Eventing at her fabulous new purpose built yard in Chitterne Wiltshire.
As a member of British Eventing, British Dressage, British Showjumping, Wylye Valley Pony Club. I train and compete weekly with my own horses and for owners
