Studying towards a Bachelor of Forestry Science
“I’ve worked the last two summers for the same company out in Rangiora. The first summer I was mostly shadowing people and finding out how the company operates. The following summer, I had real projects, like harvest planning and calculating the carbon footprint for the shipping side of the business. I went up to the head o'ce in Auckland and worked for the export team. I got to meet the CEO and all the big shots which was cool! They gave me a lot of responsibility. I had my own ute to use and I was included in all the meetings. I really felt like part of the team.”
