Summary
I emigrated to Austrailia 9 years ago and in that time I worked my way from labourer to structure foreman. I have put my heart and soul into self development and it has paid off with my fast rise to where I have gotten to today which is an achievement I am very proud off. I am very proud, driven work who thrives on challenges and adversity.
My life revolves around my 2 year old daughter Harper, training and keeping physically fit, working and holidaying when I can.
