Summary

I have worked all my life, whether in was on a property or when we lived in town. Always had a job throughout the school holidays, when I came home from boarding school.

My longest job was at Mungindi Feedlot (JBS) over 10 years of service and the only reason i left was to be a full time mum for my babies.

I am a very versatile and reliable person, who tells the truth and works hard. Throughout my life my moto I was taught, get in and get it done and learn as much as you can along the way, cause you always learn something new.

Due to working not only with animals, people and my children i believe im good at multitasking and always eager to learn, I excel in both team and independent roles, significantly contributing to operational success.
