Degree: Bachelor of Agricultural Science

Growing up on a dairy farm I have had the opportunity to have experienced many aspects of the agricultural sector including relief milking, helping with fencing, fixing water leaks, caring for animals and artificial breeding. So, studying an agricultural science degree at Massey was a logical next step.

Being a DairyNZ scholar has helped ensure that my first, all though disrupted, year at university was the best. I gained invaluable knowledge from current students and made friendships with like-minded people. This along with the workshops and dinners has cemented my passion for the agriculture industry and continues to fuel my determination to give a positive contribution to the sector.
