I joined the Colliers Wellington team in late 2011 and specialise in sales and leasing in areas outside of the Wellington CBD in particular focusing on the Kapiti area where I have lived for the past 20 years.

I come from a strong sales/entrepreneurial background where i owned and worked in the local Honda Car Franchise and Caltex Service Station, previously called Jack Motors (2000) Ltd for 15 years.  Under my ownership I took the dealership to number 1 market share for new car sales for several years, before selling the business in 2006.

I have bought a large number of residential properties in the area over the past 25 years and currently own a substantial portfolio with properties located around the country.  I believe I have a wealth of knowledge with regards to property in the Kapiti/Horowhenua area and a large client/contact base.

I am well known and highly regarded in the area through my many years in business.  I am very passionate about the Kapiti Coast and take a huge interest in the development of the area.
