I am a responsible and honest young man, looking to continue my work within the farming industry. I am amenable and open to learning and I am not shy of any physical labour that is required to get a job done. I love the outdoors and farming has always been my passion

I have always been a very keen sportsman, whilst in Australia I have enjoyed playing rugby for Cooma RFC. I have played first team rugby for Oakham RFC and have been playing since I was 4 years old. My rugby highlight is definitely being part of the Oakham team who were county champions for 3 consecutive years. I also co-run and play in a 6 a side football team in Uppingham. I enjoy festivals and am a real foodie
