I have always had a devoted interest in horses and can honestly say I have been around them since I was a couple of bricks high.
I competed as a child and got to ride many different types of horses and ponies.
After school I was privileged to have a job conducting horse back safaris. I made many friends and got to ride with really good riders from around the world. All whilst dodging acacia trees and big game. During this time we got some EDT’s from the UK to come over and work on our horses in return for a holiday. I was amazed by what I had seen and how our horses had changed for the better!
A couple of months after this I went to the UK and ended up staying for two years. I gained experience working on professional yards, and with top notch competition horses. Here I learned that dentistry is an integral part of competing at a top level. From then on I knew I needed to know more.
