I have completed year 10 at Kowanyama, then done 3 years at Burdekin Ag college. I have worked in marble mining in Qld and WA. Am able to operate backhoe, tractor, loader, grader, forklift and Excavator but have not got certificates for any of these. I hold my MR license. I have no problem with working away from home, working in isolated regions and with all races of people. I fix my vehicle myself and can repair most petrol/diesel motors, pumps. I have erected my own 2 room house out on our homeland and assisted my father building sheds and general maintenance around the workplace and at home I am a reliable, honest and hard working person and willing to go above and beyond to help out. I have been a member of the SES and RFS and have experienced dealing with tracking lost persons, searching for missing parties or vehicles and assisting stranded travellers out of creek crossings involving using a winch with the car emerged in water or broken down on the side of the road. I have helped in protecting buildings and out stations from the threat of fire and have also assisted in extinguishing several house fires in our community. I would be a valuable member of your workforce as am always eager to learn new skills and willing to widen my range of experiences
