I have been involved in the building industry since 1993, owning my own design practice since 2002. Prior to starting his practice I worked for an Architect whose main client was a multi-national company. The role included the design, 3D visualisation, documentation and project management of nearly 160 projects for this one client in the seven years I worked there.  

​

With the formation of Imagine Building Design in 2002 (re-branded to Imagine Architecture in 2021) my skills  evolved with a large amount of my work being new residential, civic facilities and accessible design.  In addition to that work numerous commercial projects complete the portfolio. 

​

I bring bring the necessary skills and experience to succeed in most building projects. In having a keen interest in architecture from a young age it is no surprise that I am passionate about quality design. I have a reputation of working hard for my clients to produce the best possible architectural solutions to meet their aesthetic, functional and budgetary requirements. 

 

I am a Professional Member of ADNZ and served as a Director on the ADNZ National Board 2011-2018, serving as Chair for three years from 2014. I was an active contributor in the board meetings. I have been involved in many Policy reviews and recommendations. As Chair I was responsible in leading the Board in all matters of governance and strategic direction. That role saw me chairing at least eight board meetings per annum along with teleconferences. I worked closely with the CEO in providing strategic direction and support from a governance point of view.

 

Since 2006 I have contributed as a speaker at seminars on various architectural design and business development subjects.  The highlight being the opportunity to share the stage with world renowned Architectural couple Lindsay & Kerry Clare on a one-week Design to Inspire speaking tour throughout New Zealand in 2012.  As Chair of ADNZ I regularly presented to members, sponsors, central government and other stakeholders.

​

Outside of architecture my life revolves around my partner Jackie and our children. I am a keen cricketer and have played competitively since I was 8 years old. I currently play club cricket for Papamoa Cricket Club. I have also competed in the NZ Masters cricket competition representing Taranaki achieving Gold and Silver medals in recent events.
