Summary

I enjoy problem solving and have a great attention to detail. I thrive working outdoors as I have extensive volunteering experience working with animals. Exceptional knowledge of a wide variety of domestic and non-domestic animals, in farm, zoos, home and veterinary settings, of their behaviour, enrichment, nutrition and handling. My background is in animal care, and I aspire to gain full-time employment in this industry to help provide good welfare of animals
