Summary:	In 1988 I achieved my city and Guilds in Animal Management, following that I have worked in some of the UK’s best animal care establishments to Head Keeper rank working with veterinary medicine as part of my training and voluntary placements. I travelled extensively and spent time with the Kalahari Bushmen in Africa, the Iban Indians of Sarawak South East Asia. And the Yolngu Aboriginal peoples of Northern Australia. These places provided me with specialist experience in exotic animals, endangered species and in Parrots and Parrot-like birds. It also gave me experience of dealing and living with other cultures and valuable people skills. My other specialist area is music. I have successfully completed a sound recording and studio management course, recorded and produced CD’s of my own and other people’s music and have a small home studio. I produced two teaching guides for didgeridoo players and various teaching guides for schools on Aboriginal Culture. I also successfully completed business training course with Inbiz covering customer care, income generation, purchasing, sales and marketing, communication, financial management and record keeping in 2005. I also have experience providing workshops for special needs pupils, young offenders and within drug rehab centers.

Username:	13579
Summary:	I feel that my greatest asset lies in that my past experience and hobbies have covered a wide range of countryside-related activities, not only in Conservation, but also in Horticulture and Greenkeeping. For example, my knowledge on wild flowers is excellent and I am equally as good on garden escapes, which complements my skills even further. After gaining a degree in Conservation Biology at the University of Bolton in 2001, I spent the next four years trying to find a suitable role before realising how difficult it is to enter the industry. I have since surprised myself by finding work in other technical industries, such as in I.T., but I am still disappointed that I never found work in Conservation where my real passion lies. I recently decided to begin looking for work in Conservation again in the hope that this time my experience in I.T. and Horticulture might make a difference.
