I am a 28-year-old hard working, athletic, faithful individual seeking for work that I’m passionate in. I was privately educated in a plethora of subjects via Charter home-school K-12, then blessed to be a homemaker after, with a small business of custom handmade home goods (woodworking).

I took on private domestic jobs such as nannying, personal home assistance, housekeeping, and animal care; specifically:
HORSE HANDLING such as

✓ feeding
✓ mucking
✓ grooming
✓ turnout and groundwork
✓ assisted in saddle breaking (geldings only, no stallions and 1 mare)
✓ etc.

I’m currently an interior design student/assistant who is taking a hiatus to work as a ranch hand in Aqua Dulce at a horse rescue sanctuary.

There, I am responsible for the care of 3 horses; as well as 2 goats and 3 pigs.

I have a long-term goal in barrel racing. I have been a rider for years (in english, western and padded bare back)

I have a deep connection and LOVE for horses – it’s genuinely all I want to do for the rest of my life, God willing!

I currently am privately training at Santa Clarita Valley Equestrian Center 3-4 x a week.

I’m highly goal orientated and organized. Can definitely lift weight.

I also have other skills such as woodworking and gardening that would be a huge benefit to any ranch!

I also do archery, jewelry design and enjoy furniture refurbishing as well.

Please consider me, as I am confident that I’ll be a great addition to your ranch! This is not an occupation I’m searching for for necessity, but true willing passion in it.

Seeking Salary: $50k or above (100% willing to negotiate much lower if housing or horses is included)
