Began my meat journey well over two decades ago with a supermarket apprenticeship whilst graduating from the Hunter Institute of TAFE, New South Wales as apprentice of the year. Dove straight into various retail butchery sides of the trade before returning to the Hunter Institute but this time as a teacher. Moved to London eventually, initially for a shorter stay, but found a real sense of community when helping start and build Provenance Village Butchers in west London where I still get on the knives as their General Manager. I enjoy keeping a finger on the pulse of the meat industry and building up the apprentices to who will eventually inherit the trade of delivering fantastic meat to thankful customers. Being an Aussie Beef Mate only adds to my pride in Aussie exports, such as myself.
