Raised between Wellington and Feilding, I spent much of my youth in the Manawatū with whānau—working on farms and at the freezing works. Those early years shaped my values: hard work, fairness, and community. After living overseas in Australia and the United States, my wife and I have returned to give back to the place we call home.

I celebrate being Māori and Pākehā. My life reflects both, and I believe our diversity is something to honour—not something that should divide us. I bring experience as an international business and media consultant, property investor, youth pastor, and leadership mentor. I’ve also recently published my first book, The Busboy.

I’m standing for council to help build a future that honours our heritage and diversity, protects our environment, strengthens our economy, and includes and cares for everyone.

Together we can create a Manawatū that’s compassionate, innovative, and united.

Manawatū Together.
