Notes - I was born in Wanganui in 1962 and moved to Auckland when I was 5. I was educated at St Thomas?s Primary School in Kohi and then Auckland Grammar School. After leaving school I attended Auckland University where I graduated with a B.Com, majoring in Finance.
After working for 2 years in Auckland at Schwarzkopf as an accountant, I went to live in England for 6 years. During this time I travelled around Europe when I wasn?t working as a contract accountant in London. I flatted in South East London in the Dulwich area and met my future wife Debbie who was a flat mate. We married in 1992 in Tunbridge Wells and last year celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary.
Debbie and I returned to NZ in 1993 and bought a house in Mission Bay. We renovated the house and our first two children, William and Charlotte were born during this time.
In 1993 I joined a small mail order business which in the same year purchased at the time, a small fledgling mail order clothing company called Pumpkin Patch. I have been with Pumpkin Patch for 15 years, during which time I have been Finance Director, UK General Manager and currently GM of Direct (E-Commerce).
In 2000 we went back to the UK to start up the UK retail operation for Pumpkin Patch and based ourselves in Debbie?s home town of Tunbridge Wells. In 2004 the youngest member of the family, Finn, was born in Tunbridge Wells.
In 2005 we moved back to NZ where I still work for Pumpkin Patch. We bought a house in Remuera which required no renovation this time around.
Family and sport are my main two interests in life and when I aren?t following the kids around I can be found on the golf course (Remuera GC) or at Mission Bay Tennis Club. I also keep fit in the gym and with various other sporting activities. I am a self confessed rugby head and follow the All Blacks and Blues passionately. Music is my other great passion but unfortunately possess no music ability myself.
