Bayswater has been home to my family for many years, where my wife and I raised our three now-adult children. I’m proud to have served 12 years on the Takapuna Grammar School Board of Trustees, helping oversee the school’s redevelopment through roles on the Finance, Property, and Discipline Committees. With a background spanning 35 years as a Director in aged care, mental health, and hospitality — including national advocacy; and I now serve on 12 governance boards and several charitable trusts. I’ve coached at North Shore Rugby Club for over 30 years and remain committed to supporting youth through sport. I love this community and want to ensure it thrives. As Local Boards gain more authority amid tighter budgets, I’ll push for practical solutions, responsible investment, and better local services; including stormwater upgrades, recycling bin returns, safer footpaths, beach access, and strong support for our sports clubs.
