I live about 20 minutes north of Masterton on a 17 hectare block with my young family. 

I’ve been involved in the rural sector for more than 20 years, primarily in sheep and beef, but I've done stints as a relief milker and AI tech too. 

Outside of work, I spend a lot of time working on our block, fencing and planting as we focus on retiring the less productive land back to native cover. I’m a keen trapper too. 

I'm excited about the potential of Wairarapa catchment groups and I’m looking forward to connecting our groups with the resources they need to do more of the good stuff.

I have a lot of experience supporting community groups and my mission is to help our catchment groups thrive.
