Summary

Currently a loper for Rick Jackson Performance Horses, and looking for new opportunities to learn from different trainers to better my horsemanship. Although my previous jobs do not involve horses, they have provided me with plenty of skills that are needed to be effective in any career. I have been in numerous high-stress situations that required composure and critical thinking to de-escalate situations. I have been a part of a team throughout my whole life, and I understand the importance of teamwork, effective communication, and supporting one another.
