Growing up with my maternal grandfather on the farm specially during weekends inspired me to pursue an agricultural career. I wanted to take a course in Agribusiness after high school. Unfortunately, personal circumstances changed it to something more manageable financially for my family. Although I finished a course that enabled me to start at the bottom of any company willing to take me in, I always yearned for a chance to work on the farm. I was in a good space when I worked for a pioneering project: a tropical grape vineyard and seedless watermelon. Even up to now I still get that desire to work on the farm. The recent Fieldays has made me strive more to have a farm of my own someday.
