Mandy Davis:
Horses have always been a major part of Mandy's life, beginning at a young age with a Dartmoor pony in the depths of the Devon.
Involving herself in many of the equestrian disciplines along the way has undoubtedly been instrumental in contributing to her broad working knowledge, horsemanship and experience that she now brings to Global Equine Group.
Arriving in Newmarket at the Equine Physiology Unit of the Animal Health Trust on a placement for her degree in 1986, she subsequently made it her home when returning there to a 'proper' job the following year. An opening at the near by Horseracing Forensic Laboratory saw her practising Analytical Chemistry for a good few years, a feat that she didn't ever think possible!
Her life took an exciting change of direction when she was asked to design, set up and manage the Diagnostic Laboratory for the new 'State of the Art' Dubai Equine Hospital which was completed in 1995. Closely involved with Godolphin, Mandy set up two more laboratories for them, in Newmarket and France, and it was on her second stint back in Dubai that she met Adam when he joined the Hospital team in 1999. Although returning home in 2004, and working for a short time at Greenwood Ellis & Partners, Mandy returned to Godolphin to upgrade the Newmarket Laboratory including the introduction of a LIMS, until 2010.
A new opportunity and another change of direction early in 2010, led her to join Adam in taking Global Equine Group forward, a challenge that she feels confident in undertaking - both of them having the passion, motivation, experience and professionalism that compliment each other.
