• Best memory of working at Franna? Early 2000’s the first time ever leaving Australian shores - working in the field internationally for eight weeks in Asia, overcoming the unknown, remote locations, heat and humidity, language barriers, local travel, local customs, local food, sourcing tools & equipment to conduct work, building a local team to support with repairs. After completing the eight weeks I was completely exhausted physically, mentally and looking forward to my break at home with my family. While there has been many highlights in my career working at Franna, this event of thinking on the fly and outside the box, filling gaps, learning and applying skill sets needed to get the job done was only the first of several trips, however the first trip was the most exhilarating and memorable looking back.
