Driven by Passion

Sometimes it’s not the big arenas, the packed grandstands, or the podium finishes that are most memorable. Sometimes it’s a quiet training day – just the horses, a single jump, and that one feeling that something truly special is happening. That’s exactly how my final training session in 2025 on Mallorca felt. King, Mallorca, Spain - 1.55 m Reaching New Heights In this last training session of the year, I approached something with both of my horses, King and O’Brian, that for

From October 3rd to 5th, I had the opportunity to compete with King in the Complementarias classes at the 1.20 m height as part of the Ctos. de España de Saltos during the renowned Sunshine Tour in Vejer de la Frontera. Three exciting competition days filled with sunshine, a great atmosphere, and top-level show jumping!

Sometimes a major competition doesn’t begin with a starting bell, but with a first careful ride. Just a few days before the CSI4*-W Longines São Paulo , I suddenly found myself standing next to my competition horse  Jossete Polana – with no shared history, no real training time, but a very clear goal: to be ready when it mattered. This is exactly where my next chapter with the Global Amateur Tour Brazil 2025 began. GAT Brazil 2025 - CSI4*-W Longines São Paulo Getting to Know

Olá from São Paulo! I’m finally here – in Brazil – with the  Global Amateur Tour Brazil 2025 , and the excitement couldn’t be greater. It feels amazing to be part of this international project that gives riders from all over the world the chance to compete at a top level. The highlight of this stage is the CSI4*-W Longines São Paulo  – South America’s largest international indoor show jumping competition.

On August 1, it was time once again: as every year, we headed to Mallorca to spend the second half of the year there. Our arrival was originally planned for the evening – but three days before departure, everything changed: My trainer asked me if I wanted to compete with King in the 41st edition of the traditional Trofeo S.A.R. Infanta Elena CSN2* , a prestigious and long-standing show jumping competition on Mallorca. The tournament, named after the Spanish princess Infanta E

From June 28 to July 6, 2025, it was finally time: The South African Youth Championships were on the schedule – nine days full of emotions, competition, and adrenaline. After weeks of preparation, I headed to Johannesburg with White Queen’s Cartier Z and Generation X to compete in Equitation and Show Jumping against the best young riders in South Africa.

The time has finally come – on June 26, the next big chapter of this riding season begins: I’m off to Johannesburg to compete at the South African Youth Championships – one of the most exciting and important youth events in the South African equestrian calendar. And honestly? I can’t wait to be part of this incredible show experience! South African Youth Championships 2025 I'm full of energy, full of anticipation – and most of all, full of motivation.

From April 11th to 13th, 2025, something truly special was on my calendar: my first European show of the year – the CSN5* Moura Tours in Valencia, Spain. Special? Oh yes – in more ways than one! First, because I spend the first six months of every year living and training in Cape Town – so this was the first time I had ever traveled to Spain, accompanied only by my trainer Cassidy. And second, because I hadn’t ridden my competition horse King since December 2024. Moura Tours

The Mediterranean Equestrian Tour 2024 – MET – was a milestone for King and me. From December 6th to 15th, I had the incredible opportunity to participate in this internationally prestigious show jumping event in Oliva Nova, Spain, for the very first time – and it was an experience I will never forget! Autumn MET 2024, Valencia, Spain - Bronce 1.20 m The MET is one of the most renowned international show jumping competition in Europe, offering riders from all over the worl

From October 18 to 20, 2024, the Balearic Show Jumping Championship took place at Hipódromo Son Pardo in Palma de Mallorca - and it was a very special premiere for me. Not only was it my first time competing in this championship, but it was also my first major show jumping competition with King. A true test of our partnership, as I had only been riding King for three months. That made it even more incredible that we performed so well as a team - I couldn’t have dreamed of a
