Summary
I have a diverse upbringing and gained experience in many different fields of life in my 32 years. I'm a father of 2 young sons that grew up in the outdoors of Southland as a sports fanatic.

I have spent time travelling the world and developed a good sense of culture and identity. I am someone who is constantly looking for challenges and to upskill myself.
