I'm physically fit & enjoy hard work with a purpose. I've worked with computers, in vineyards and sports coaching and now I'm studying as a guide & sitter for (legal) therapeutic psychedelic practice.

  • More details about your skills

    Over my 50 odd years I started out working in IT and continue to have an interest in technology. I left that area in 2008 and took a second degree in Viticulture & Oenology, followed by a time working in vineyards and running my own vineyard consultancy. In 2018 I was offered an opportunity to coach target shooting at an international lever, and this was my career up to 2024. I am now studying for a qualification in Psychedelic Practice with a view to working as a guide/sitter for therapeutic retreats.

    This life experience has given me a wide range of skills in IT, farming (although technical/biological knowledge is limited to grapes!) project management and sports coaching as well as strong inter-personal skills. I am physically fit, enjoy hard work with a purpose and know my round most agricultural machinery.
