I am a highly experienced international business development specialist, MBA qualified with strong management skills and a commitment to high performance.
I was born just outside Canberra to school teacher parents and grew up on the upper north shore of Sydney – quickly developing a love of sport and the outdoors.
From Primary School I was accepted into the selective James Ruse Agricultural High School and excelled in Economics.
Upon leaving school I was awarded a Business Scholarship with Australian Consolidated Industries (ACI) Ltd to study Economics at University.
After several years in Business Development and further Post Graduate University study I headed to Europe with my brother to coach and play Club Tennis in the Austrian Alps.
Returning to Australia I was fortunate to secure roles where I could combine my sales skills, my passion for sport and my desire to engage in International Business – which culminated in senior management positions in Singapore and with a key Sydney 2000 Games industry development initiative.
It was during this time I married my wife Wendy, had our first and only child Nicholas and graduated with an MBA in International Business.
Moving to Queensland to raise our son and enjoy the sub-tropical lifestyle I have continued to enjoy and work with selected public and private organisations on their business development and improvement.
Now living and working in Brisbane we enjoy walking, events, cafes/restaurants and following the amazing academic and sporting achievements of our son at College in America.
