Summary

Every since I was a child I have loved farming and i knew i i would follow the path of agriculture. Growing up on a family beef and sheep farm there was always plenty to be done. As a child raring my own pet lambs and calves allowed me to connect with farming and nature in deep way. When I received my first job on a neighboring farm that's when i began to expand my agricultural knowledge. Gaining experience and see things done differently then what was happening on my own farm. Im now in first year studying ag science in UCD, which i enjoy the course thoroughly.
