I have over 20 years of experience in the agricultural industry. This experience has been primarily in the grazing industry. I have worked as:
- a general stationhand,
- road train driver,
- helicopter pilot,
- machinery operator,
- and office manager.
These positions have contributed to my knowledge and experience of heavy vehicle, transport, earth moving, aviation, and agricultural businesses.

Practical Safety Experience
I have helped multiple businesses develop, write, and implement ISO45001 compliant safety systems.
I have delivered safety talks and workshops to industry leaders and I have created a safety compliance course for agricultural managers. Creating this course required extensive research of WHS legislation, relevant Australian Standards, Codes of Practice, and relevant guidance material for all states and territories of Australia.
I have conducted site inspections and internal accident investigations.
