@sandetolbert
Versatile animal husbandry professional with extensive dairy farming experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a broadly informed and hardworking animal husbandry professional with a strong background in the optimal care of livestock. My experience spans various aspects of dairy farming, including raising calves, breeding, milking (both automated and manual), and ensuring the overall health and productivity of farm animals. I have honed my skills in feed mixing, hoof trimming, and monitoring animal health, which has equipped me to effectively manage daily farm operations.
Throughout my career, I have worked at NUWOG Integrated Dairy Farm as a Dairy Farm Worker, where I have been responsible for caring for farm animals, assisting with breeding, and training new farm workers. My attention to detail and strong communication skills have allowed me to identify production issues and implement solutions that enhance farm productivity. I am committed to maintaining high standards of animal welfare and ensuring that livestock are kept in safe and comfortable environments.
