It was my privilege to return to Greenmeadows School in 2018 in the role of Deputy Principal, having previously taught here for a brief period in 2014. My wife, Rebecca, is currently an RTLB in Napier and my two children, Maia and Tāne, go to school in Taradale.

I enjoy sharing my love of sport with children and whānau here at Greenmeadows - I think all children can benefit from taking part in a mix of team and individual sports at primary school. I like running and cycling in my spare time. During the summer you might catch me racing or volunteering with Tri HB, or perhaps playing touch rugby at Taradale Rugby Club. I spend the winter months playing football and you might see me coaching at Park Island on Saturday mornings.

Apart from sport I also enjoy sharing a passion for mathematics and digital technologies. I am very excited to be a part of preparing your children for a successful future in our fast-changing world.
