Dave was born in Auckland, but soon saw the light, going to high school in Cambridge.

He’s done everything from laminating benchtops and rewinding electric motors in Cambridge to installing fire protection systems in Hamilton and Putaruru. He then spent on farms in Eureka and around Cambridge.

After a stint as a spray technician for Hamilton City Council he was enticed to join Spraylink this year.

On the job, you’ll most likely see him towing the big boom sprayer on the 200HP Massey Ferguson tractor.

When he’s not spraying out a crop of maize or applying ProGibb, he likes to spend time with family and friends, and admits to playing the harmonica.
