Summary
I have spent 13 years working in agriculture on a small, 2400 acre seed farm. The last 8 years, a large part of my job has been focused on maintaining and operating 6 center pivot irrigation systems. I have experience operating a large variety of farm and construction equipment. At my current job I am expected to help keep equipment up to date on service, and repair things as needed. I also preform a lot of grounds work. I am accustomed to working long hours outdoors, often unsupervised.
