Ash-Leigh Campbell

Born and raised in Canterbury, Ash-Leigh Campbell is the Technical Farm Manager at Ngāi Tahu Farming, where she has been working for over three years. She is responsible for assisting with the management and performance of eight dairy and dairy support farms.

After leaving high school she studied at Lincoln University doing diplomas in Agriculture and Farm Management and a degree in Commerce majoring in Agriculture.
