Description
Kia ora!
I'm eager to embark on a meaningful adventure, where I can contribute my time and skills into different communities and cultures.
Working with my hands and getting a healthy sweat on really motivates me and has been a big part of my current job working in conservation. I like to be able to look back on a project and see how I've contributed to it.

Over the last 10 years I've been involved with projects like building retaining walls, stripping and painting houses, reroofing sheds, building firewood sheds, relining rooms, installing fences, planting and hauling young plants.
I've almost always worked as part of a small team, but am very comfortable working alone. I like to learn new things and can bring patience and reliability to any team :)
