I currently live and work in Zambia on a small 450 hectare livestock farm with my dad. The farm contains cattle, sheep, poultry and a small pig unit. As well as a small maize crop we use for silage for the cattle feed lot. I have some experience with small Taffe tractors and a Telehandler/TLB

Matriculated from Kingswood College in Grahamstown, South Africa in December 2020.
Got some job experience at STERIC Engineering with general metal fabrication, welding and grinding. From January 2020 to the end of March 2020.
Started at the begging of April 2020 working on a small farm containing cattle, sheep, poultry and a small pig unit. I have been involved in broiler production of 36,000 birds per cropping and a 12 sow piggery which I started and am responsible for. I have been on the farm for the last year assisting my dad. I have been involved in all farm operations including tractor driving, operating the TLB, growing maize for silage to feed our cows and all other jobs involved in running a farm. We have a Cattle feedlot as well as 120 breeding Ewes. I am also currently in the process of completing a certificate in Agriculture online.
