George became interested in the livestock industry after spending many summers working as a general farm hand between high school semesters and university holidays. These farms included Peel Forest Estate, Iona, Bog Roy Station and Annadale. George contacted Rural livestock and after a few days of work experience, found he enjoyed the rewarding nature of building relationships, the challenge, and experience gained and never looked back!
While at Lincoln University, George achieved a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Agriculture. Now working as a Rural Livestock agent, George has clients all around the Canterbury region, shortly moving to Mid Canterbury, to focus on this area.
Outside of work George enjoys adventure sports such as skiing on both water and snow, hunting, fishing, jet boating and diving. George also plays rugby for High School Old Boys and has represented New Zealand as part of the New Zealand Universities rugby team in 2022. George has been a member of the Canterbury B rugby team in 2021, 2022 and 2023.
George is motivated to succeed and loves the feeling of success. For George it is the most rewarding feeling so is always motivated to get the best success out of anything. If you have not noticed yet George is quite competitive and works diligently to his motivations.
George's favourite quote is, "The body can always go further than the mind".
