Summary

I am a resourceful, reliable, and pragmatic individual dedicated to optimising processes and minimising waste.

I approach difficult and challenging situations with a positive mindset, viewing safety protocols as essential tools, rather than obstacles.

My management style is direct and transparent, fostering effective communication that strengthens team dynamics. I am known for my honesty, dedication, and adaptability, combined with high energy and a proven ability to inspire and motivate my team through a strategic, success-oriented approach.

Currently, I lead and have successfully developed the first production team of its kind in Western Australia, driving both my team and my company towards continued success.
