Hollie started riding at the ripe age of 3 years old and hasn't looked back since. She has been trick riding since the age of 15 and has over 30 years of show horse and breeds experience. Hollie spends most her time coaching, training/starting horses and performing in both trick riding and show horse disciplines from beginner mounts and riders all the way to advanced.
Hollie was given her first horse at the age of 6 and spent most her time helping her mother manage an agistment and trail riding property. Hollie competed in her first horse show at the age of 5 and soon after started pony club and also competed in show jumping, eventing and inter school events.
Hollie was an original member of all girl team GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS who performed at Sydney Royal Easter Show, Brisbane Royal Show (EKKA) and Equitana Melbourne. The team was also part of television series Outriders and starred in some TV commercials as well.
in 2005 Hollie moved to the Gold Coast where she joined a world famous dinner experience horse show. Hollie became a main lead performer, supervisor, trick riding trainer, animal trainer (camels, chickens, sheep, cattle and horses), cast co-ordinator and worked as their OHS supervisor and procedure manager for over 10 years.
Apart from trick riding Hollie also has a passion for the showring. Hollie has been competing at state, royal and national level with her show horses for many years and more recently became a pinto horse owner where she has now won numerous titles at all levels on her self trained coloured horses.
