Summary

Drawing on over 10 years in the agricultural industry, I have developed strong skills in time management, interpersonal communication, and data collection and management. Physically fit and self-motivated, I can be relied on to accomplish tasks in a timely and accurate manner. I have experience in using many forms of heavy farm equipment, and a broad range of experience in cropping, as well as herd management and breeding. I enjoy challenges, and am always interested in gaining new skills.

Proven to perform under pressure and in time-critical situations, I work well in teams and can both give and receive direction as required.
