With an involvement in agriculture over 20 years from agronomy, family farm management on Kangaroo Island, lecturing and regional management in various areas of Australia, working in agriculture is a passion. Working with farmers, customers and industry groups to find farming solutions is very rewarding. Having a young family of boys, football and cricket are not far away as well as the motorbikes. Packing up the camper to head to the coast is a regular activity as well as being part of the Lucindale Roos Football Club and community.

I grew up on a small acreage in Wagga Wagga, NSW. My grandparents also had a small farm 20kms out, in Mangoplah. I remember weekends helping my grandma pick fruit in their orchard and helping feed the cows. I moved away from agriculture and moved to Adelaide where I completed my schooling and found myself being drawn back to agriculture where I worked at a plant breeding company over one summer which reignited my passion for agriculture again. I’ve completed just under 6 years as an agronomist in the South East, SA and Wimmera/Mallee, VIC dealing with broadacre cropping, pasture feed, small seed production and a handful of horticulture crops under irrigation. This has taken me into my current role in Nufarm Australia. I love working in agriculture because no two days are the same and it is ever changing industry especially in the last couple years with land prices increasing and input costs reducing profit margins. When I’m not at work I’m with my family, outside in my garden or veggie patch or playing netball in winter and women’s footy in summer for the local sporting club.

Born and raised in a country community, I have spent more than 35 years in the agriculture industry, with a focus on customer service. I have a passion for positive outcomes for all participants across the industry. Having performed roles at various management levels of agricultural businesses has equipped me to understand the daily requirements of producers and our customers. I am proud to work for an Australian company that manufactures products locally. With teenage kids, time away from work is all about sport and having an involvement in football through committee and coaching roles.

Having grown up in a rural country town, I developed an interest in agriculture leading me to study a Bachelor of Agriculture through the University of New England. This passion was born from sheer enjoyment of the outdoors and farm life, living vicariously through close friends and their farms. Towards the end of my schooling, I was working on mixed broadacre farms, providing me with an insight into the ag industry. Over the last five years, I was fortunate to have studied online and attend intensive schools, whilst working full-time as an Agronomist. The experience I gained across a variety of horticulture, broadacre, mixed pastures and small seed production was a great way to begin my career in the ag industry.

I was fortunate enough to study Agricultural Science throughout high school and then went on to complete a Bachelor of Environmental Science at the University of Adelaide, developing a keen interest in weed ecology.  I have since worked at Forestry SA, University of Adelaide, and Eurofins Agroscience Services and am currently in the role of Field Development Officer at Nufarm.  I have a strong interest in herbicides, managing herbicide resistance and enjoy playing a role in developing solutions for farmers and agronomists.  Being a part of the Portfolio Solutions team at Nufarm Australia is very satisfying because we have a culture that fosters creativity and ideation, which I believe are key components of successful product development.

Growing up in the suburbs of Adelaide I completed an Agricultural Science Degree (Oenology) at the University of Adelaide which began my involvement in agriculture, with a 15 year career in Winemaking and Viticulture. Located in the picturesque Adelaide Hills wine region of South Australia I worked in all aspects of Vineyard & Wine production.  Being a part of a premium wine production area has highlighted the importance of crop protection and how companies like Nufarm play a vital role in this space. With a focus on Horticulture my current role is as a Field Development officer based out of Adelaide, where I perform a range of tasks including conducting and managing field trials, product development and training.

Growing up on a family farm south of Lameroo in the South Australian Mallee gave me an early appreciation for agriculture. After finishing school, I worked for a local reseller which was where my passion for agriculture grew. I then went onto study a Bachelor of Agricultural Science at the University of Adelaide and then worked at contract research company AgXtra. I am currently working as the Field Research and Development Specialist at Nufarm. I enjoy playing a part in providing solutions to farmers and agronomists to challenges that we are faced with in Australian agriculture. Outside of work, I play football for the Southern Mallee Suns Football Club and enjoy spending time with family and friends.

Growing up on my family’s mixed farming property west of Gunnedah NSW, sparked my passion for all things rural & regional in Australia and the amazing Agricultural industry which is at the heart of it. I have worked across different sectors of the industry which has included live export, cattle production, equine sales, livestock and the digital Ag space with a focus on customers and sales. I started with Nufarm in August 2022 as the Business Development Manager for Central West NSW.

Growing up on the family farm at Lake Cargelligo, I developed a keen interest in Agriculture at an early age and it was always an industry I wanted to be part of. As the Agriculture industry is constantly changing and always being challenged by external forces there is always something interesting keeping me motivated. Agronomy roles in the M.I.A. and then Saskatchewan have given me a sound understanding of many cropping segments. My role with Nufarm allows me to work with local Agronomists and Farmers, finding solutions to continue increasing productivity and profitability. A young family consumes most spare time at the moment but I still wet a line with mates when I can.

My love of agriculture began at a young age, growing up on our family farm in the small country town of Lockhart in Southern NSW. I have always enjoyed the challenges that agriculture provides, driving us to constantly improve practices and continually acquire new knowledge.

I am excited to be working for an Australian, market-leading crop protection company that can provide practical solutions for Australian conditions!

Growing up in Sydney I didn’t have the most traditional route coming into agriculture however consider myself incredibly lucky to work in the industry. The more I learn and experience the more passionate I get! After finishing my ag science degree, I started Nufarm’s graduate program where I moved around various functions of the business throughout Australia. Moving into my new role I look forward to assisting agronomists and growers whenever possible. When I’m not trying to convince my friends they should work in agriculture, you’ll find me on the netball courts or planning my next travel adventure.

I have been involved in the agricultural industry all my life both in a personal and professional sense. Growing up on a broadacre farm in the WA wheatbelt and being raised in a generational farming family, helped nurture my passion for farming and rural communities. My background includes work in the grain exporting, marketing & phytosanitary space as a DPIRD accredited Authorised Officer, a Bachelor of Agribusiness at Curtin University, and most recently a role with an Australian agri bank in the sales & relationship management team. Throughout these experiences, I uncovered a profound interest and respect for Australian agricultural innovation, which has led me to my BDM role at Nufarm. Interacting with like-minded people who share similar values and interests in providing agribusiness solutions is where I find the most joy at work. I look forward to building on my existing network within this wonderful industry.
