Summary

I have grown up in Gisborne on two hill country sheep and beef stations where I developed a passion for the outdoors and hunting. I attended boarding school at Napier Boys High which installed discipline and a good sense of social awareness. I have worked full time over my holiday breaks throughout high school and university for multiple employers. This allowed me to meet new people and work in many different environments. I gained the ability to adapt to quickly and confidently work as a team while taking pride in my work and bringing a positive attitude.
