INTRODUCTION
I work across creative direction, leadership, operational systems, and business strategy. I care about building things properly: clear processes & systems, strong teams with great communication, and work with impact that holds up over time.
Outside of work I’m a husband to Abi and dad to three kids under five (2 Boys, 1 Girl). We have recently settled in the Hunter region to be part of a community where our family can thrive both professionally and personally.
