“My ideas are heard”
“My ideas are heard”
A big part of my job is finding creative ways to use excess and waste materials from the mill, I don’t think there’s been any ideas I’ve had that have been knocked back, but I’ve held back the wild ones!

“It’s really satisfying”
“It’s really satisfying”
I am a tackler, which is a mechanical engineer. I like taking things that are broken and working out how to fix them. It is really satisfying when you have fixed a problem.
