Summary

I'm a young farmer looking for new experiences in life and in work. I'm wanting to go far and wide gaining experience and knowledge in as many things as I can, I enjoy fishing and hunting pigs in my spare time otherwise im finding new ways upgrade my vehicle and make it more comfortable to drive.

I've spent the larger part of My life on dairy farms being the 4th generation in my family to follow this path, aswell as six months of contract fencing after college then the last Five years in dairy positions learning from My previous Two employers and from the Primary ITO course work developing my knowledge and understanding in the Livestock and Agricultural side of health, wellbeing, pasture management, feed demands and much more.

I'm a relaxed person to work with that finds working in a relaxed environment is always the best work place practice and I always try to maintain a chill environment for myself and others around Me.

I'm still developing my skills in all things but always willing to learn if it comes under Self and/or Career development.
