Summary
I was an aspiring junior rugby league player with the Penrith Panthers, where I developed key values that have shaped my character—work ethic, coachability, a hunger to learn, resilience, striving for excellence, and attention to detail. Unfortunately, my career took an unexpected turn after enduring three ACL reconstructions. While this was a challenging period, it instilled in me a deep sense of resilience and determination, which I now use as fuel for my future endeavors.
After returning to Auckland, New Zealand, I completed a Certificate III in Carpentry at Unitec. Soon after, I joined Greenwood Construction as a builder, where I worked for several years and developed a strong foundation of skills and experience.
At the end of 2022, I moved to Sydney, Australia, for a fresh start. To support myself, I have worked in various roles, including forklift driver, scaffold builder, and my current position as a Warehouse Lead.
I have a deep desire for learning and self-improvement, which I consider my greatest strength and the driving force behind everything I pursue.
