To whom this may concern,

I am reaching out to explore remote job opportunities, ideally in the Western region, though I am open to other locations.

With a diverse background and a passion for challenges, I thrive in environments that require resilience and adaptability. My upbringing in the mountains, where I learned to navigate life without modern conveniences, has instilled in me a strong sense of independence and resourcefulness.

I possess extensive skills in animal care, permaculture, soil regeneration, and biomechanics.

I have a keen observational ability, I excel in managing and nurturing both animals and plants.

I am particularly drawn to smaller, family-owned, or community- focused organizations. I work effectively with minimal supervision, am self- motivated, and bring a wealth of experience and education to my roles.

Areas of Interest (but not limited to):

  • Range Rider
  • Operations Manager
  • Animal Sanctuary
  • Regenerative Ranching
  • Sustainable and Organic Agriculture
  • Draft Horses

Recent Projects:

As the Ranch Manager for a horse and Scottish Highland Cattle operation, I was responsible for overseeing daily, weekly, and monthly goals for employees. I successfully led the renovation of the garden, establishing a commercial-scale vegetable and fruit production system. Additionally, I managed the care of bee hives and facilitated health and wellness retreats. I also reworked all horses from the ground up, ensuring proper training and care. My role involved operating a variety of heavy machinery, including a skid steer, excavator, tractor, and air brake dump truck. I implemented a rainwater collection system for the ranch and redesigned the ground surface water flow to prevent erosion. Furthermore, I provided training for the ranch’s shepherds, ensuring they were well-prepared to manage livestock effectively.
