My Programing life began at Vision Software when I was promoted from a Technical Support role to Software Developer in May 2008. Prior to my IT career. I worked as a chef for many years before studying Business Computing at EIT in Hawkes Bay. Although my original focus was in network management I have developed a passion for software development which led to to pursuing career opportunities with a software development company. Currently i am working as a software developer for Seeka kiwifruit.

Outside of work I love nothing better than enticing a Bay of Plenty snapper or two onto my hook, spending family time with my wife , gorgeous daughter Libby and a Tank of a son Ethan, and landscaping My section in Te Puke. I am also a home-brewing enthusiast with (reportedly) very good results, and from time to time I revert to my former career and produce a gourmet meal for family and friends.
