Jorja Hamersley

Walkaway,WA

Summary

My name is Jorja Hamersley.

I grew up on my family's farm in a small town called Walkaway, located a short drive southeast of Geraldton. I enjoy playing netball, horse riding going to the beach and assisting with seasonal farming practices. Throughout my life, my siblings and I have helped out our parents on the farm and along the way I have picked many vital skills that can only be taught first hand. I am passionate about all the work that I pursue and am always eager to discover new ways to learn and teach others. I am currently studying my Diploma of Agriculture at Charles Sturt University to hopefully one day secure career within a well-known plant breeding Co-operation.
