Jaime works in strategy at Loam Bio, a fast-growing Australian biotech company enabling farmers to capture and store stable carbon in the soil by utilising the power of microbes. Jaime is a little different to our usual guests – she didn’t grow up on a farm, and she didn’t study agriculture, nor is she now in what most would consider a traditional agricultural role. She’s an engineer by training and spent two years at a top-tier management consulting firm before venturing into the world of agriculture, first in Africa and then back on Aussie soil. As one of ag’s newest recruits and having taken a path less trodden, Jaime shares a little about how she got to where she is and why she chose agriculture to be where she makes her next mark. Tune in for an exciting story.

Katie Turner

In Episode 16 of the FFN ‘Mentor of the Month’ podcast, FFN Director Samantha Noon speaks with Katie Turner - an incredibly accomplished and capable 30-year-old who grew up on a 230,000-acre cattle and sheep station near Quilpie, in Southwest Queensland, which she later managed on her own. It was there she first learnt to fly her father’s light aircraft – and later got her pilot’s license. Flying has become one of her great loves, along with the feeling of freedom that it brings when you’re  8,500 feet in the sky.    Katie has had a colourful career, filled with adventure, from living on the land, working in banking to exporting livestock and even modelling for Revlon’s Drought Angels campaign. Today she works for AAM Investment Group in Brisbane as their Operations performance manager.  Her resilience and can-do attitude has been a great foundation to her success – which she’s very humble about and takes life as it comes. Her advice to young aggies is to not stress if you don’t know which direction you’re heading in. “There are no straight lines in life – sometimes you’ve got to ride the wave and I think by doing that, your purpose will follow.”
