A bit about your riding career: I learnt to ride in England when a friend of my mum’s bought me a helmet for my 6th birthday. We moved to Australia in 1995 and I had my first pony bought for me in 1996. I was a member of Gidgegannup pony club and the BEATS squad for a number of years which led me to find my love for eventing. I evented for 18 years with a lot of success, including taking home produced horses to Melbourne and Adelaide three day events coming home with 2nd and 3rd in the 2star on our first attempt out of 68 horses. In 2018 I made the change to full time show jumping and have a lovely team of horses including some that are home bred. Sadly we had to retire the King of our team, DvZ Chevalier earlier this year who left some big shoes to fill but our all girl team is doing a great job of stepping up with plenty of big goals on the horizon! 

Most Memorable Moment: Winning the Mini Prix at the WA State Championships in 2024
