Summary
Born and raised on a Southland sheep farm, I've always worked hard outdoors. My family have always been into the outdoors so I have spent much of my leisure time in the mountains or surf.
I have a positive, motivated, and enthusiastic approach to life, and will take any opportunity or challenge that comes my way. I work hard and to the highest standard. I value the community and willingly volunteer to be part of this. I hope to incorporate these skills into becoming a vet and a valued member of the community. I learn quickly, am a committed team member, and adapt quickly to new situations.
