Summary
I enjoy working outdoors and have a passion for animals. I have been in the farming industry for 12+ yrs as it has become my lifestyle. Over the years i have been able to build a strong foundation of skills in all areas of dairy farming. I see myself as a hardworking and self-motivated individual who thrives under pressure I am not afraid to make decisions when need to be made. I have hands on experience's in large and small herds and all areas of staff management and enjoy setting an example and teaching staff to the highest standard.
I believe i would make a valuable asset to your team and business.
