What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my agricultural expertise while contributing to sustainable practices and community development.

I am an experienced Agri-preneur and Project Manager with a strong commitment to sustainable agriculture. My journey in the agricultural sector has been marked by significant achievements, including my role as a Local GAP Farm Assurer for the Ministry of Agriculture, Food Security & Nutrition, where I ensure compliance with global standards.

As a Project Manager for the Potato Lesotho Association, I have successfully led initiatives that enhance productivity and sustainability in farming practices. My background as a Farm Manager at Khomokhoana Holdings has equipped me with hands-on experience in managing agricultural operations effectively. I am also the author of 'A Guide to Farming in the 21st Century,' which reflects my dedication to educating others in the field.
