TRAINEE'S PROFILE: Yves Dominic J. Lastimoso, the Agri-Sports Hunk of Animal Production!

Meet the twenty-year-old boy next door who advocates agriculture and outdoor sports activities. Unknown to many, Yves Dominic J. Lastimoso is a champion of his sports. He began cycling five years ago and since then; he scored medals after medals in Mountain Bike Race that he competed.


On one hand, he discovered his passion for agriculture when he was undecided to take up a bachelor’s degree in college after his senior high last summer. Instead, he ends up enrolling in TESDA–WNAS when a family friend who works at a dairy farm in New Zealand recommends our institution. It was a big change for him taking up Animal Production (Ruminants) NC II since the battlefield was new. Until he developed his passion for farming when he started his training.

 

Bunso, as his co-trainees called him as he’s the youngest, enjoyed the training in TESDA-WNAS because he learned a lot. He admitted that his soft skills improved as well since most of his classmates were matured and well-experienced in life. He thought of becoming self-reliant and independent the first time he survived being away from his parents since he stayed in the barn for almost three weeks to perform various tasks in ruminants production especially milking the dairy cows as early as three o’clock in the morning. The exciting chunk of his training was when he knew how to drive a Carabao-driven carriage (Balsa) to transport fodder and other farm supplies.

 

After he graduated in Ruminants, he moved to Animal Production (Swine) NC II hoping to increase his knowledge in animal production. After his swine training he plans to work in New Zealand to save for his future and when he comes back after a year, he will continue his studies while running a business.


 

He quips that “TESDA provides a short term program to gain skills and knowledge but offers a long-term benefit. TESDA molds me and makes me ready for a bigger future!”  As Yves designs, his master plan at a very young age is a wonderful gesture of success. Because he has much time to re-design it anytime he wants. He serves as a marvelous example of millennials today to plan ahead of his game.  TESDA–WNAS is proud to be part of his plan that prepares a blueprint for a brighter tomorrow. - Jonah D.
