Jonathan has also always had a passion for horses since childhood and grew up in the racing sphere of the equestrian industry. Jonathan’s father was a professional flat jockey and is now an established thoroughbred breeder. This background has allowed Jonathan to gain valuable industry experience in the equestrian diagnostic sector.

Having completed an MBA, Jonathan has now moved into managing human medical testing now as lab manager of Enfer Medical.
