"I started working at the farm that I currently manage, just a couple of months after completing my course at Llysfasi College. I am now responsible for the overall management of the farm which includes 1200 ewes and 80 cattle.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Llysfasi College. It was a totally different learning experience for me from school. It provided me with a good base to start a career in Agriculture.
