Horses have been a part of my life from when I can remember. I had the privilege of growing up in Fiji where I was part of the local Pony Club, on weekends we gave the horses some downtime where we took them to the beach and swam with them. I wouldn’t dare do that with my horses, don’t think I would come out the other side! From Fiji I relocated (with family) to Dublin where I had riding lessons at the local rinding centre. Then onto relocating to Buckinghamshire (with family) where I had riding lessons at the local riding centre. I then ended up finishing a local livery competition yard where I worked for lessons (back in the day when Health and Safety didn’t exist) From here I went on to start my career with horses and studied equine studies at Moreton Morrell College. I had the privilege of meeting someone who worked with The Fletchers (Show Jumpers) I went on to work for the Fletchers for a few years. Learning an immense amount in regards to competition and grooming. Grooming at HOYS and Blenheim. From here I went on to gain my BHS stages and teaching at Millfield Equestrian Centre, where I was part of the Teaching Staff. I gained an incredible amount of knowledge and skills here and learnt from the best in the industry, who is now a Fellow of the BHS. Millfield took me on a journey to branch out and make my career my own where I worked for a Lord and Lady teaching their children and grooming. I then went onto use my skills and groom and ride for amateur eventers in Gloucestershire. This was a great experience, however from here due to personal circumstances I decided to put horses on the back burner and concentrate on my future. I now have my horses as a hobby and enjoy every moment I spend with her. I am so very excited about being part of the EDRC and to represent and support all of our members.
