Born and bred in Opotiki, my local knowledge is unsurpassed. I have spent several years in tertiary study and worked in the Kiwifruit industry, Education sector and Real Estate industry. Alongside my role as Property Manager, I am contracted to Skills Organisation in the capacity of Assessor/Moderator: marking exam papers for students studying in the real estate arena. I am also a certified methamphetamine Sampler (via Meth Solutions).

I am a property investor and have almost 30 years experience with investment properties – residential and commercial.

I am married to Joanne and have two adult children: Jared and Rhiannon. I enjoy cycling, running, travel, movies and the company of my friends and pets. My philosophy is “Whatever you can conceive and believe, you can achieve.”
