Rural roots. Practical judgement.
Shirley grew up on a farm, and farming has been part of her life for close to fifty years. That background has given her a strong understanding of rural workplaces and the realities of farming businesses.
Much of her work sits within rural New Zealand, where an understanding of farming businesses, rural employment and Contract Milker relationships can make a meaningful difference.
