ℹ️ Biography

I have been a keen horsewoman from an early age and started my love affair with horses at the age of 3.

I qualified as an equine vet in 2003 from the Royal Veterinary College in London, and then worked in private practice before undertaking an equine surgical residency at the Phillip Leverhulme Equine Hospital in Liverpool.

During that time I developed skills across all areas of equine surgery, but mainly colic and urogenital surgery.

In 2015 I set up my own practice based in Shilton, Coventry, and I now provide equine veterinary services throughout the Midlands.

Having grown up in a dressage and then polo environment, I discovered western riding a few years ago, and it has been a revelation.

The wonderful western community and the friendly atmosphere surrounding the sport sparked a passion in me to learn as much as I possibly can and to become a devoted member of it.

I would love to encourage everyone to come and have as much fun as I do with western riding.
