Maya discovered her love of horses when learning to ride on a Shetland Pony named Rice Bubbles (who enjoyed swiping Maya off her back against trees) at the age of 4 . Maya initially enjoyed competing in eventing but has since gravitated towards stock riding including cutting and campdrafting.
Maya has gained knowledge and experience by holding a range of roles, including starting and training horses, working on a cattle station of over 1 million acres in the Kimberley, riding trackwork in the racing industry, and working at multiple stockfeed supply stores, where she gained extensive knowledge about horse health products.
Maya is a valuable team member and “Jill of all Trades” for The Equine Apothecary.
Maya’s family of horses includes Ziggy (Australian Stock Horse x Quarter Horse), Tigerlily (Holsteiner x Warmblood), and Saskia (Australian Stock Horse).
