Participating in Toss the Boss and support young people in Otago

Dunedin, Otago

Born and raised in Christchurch, I trained first as a baker, then as a chef, before entering the world of hotel management. We moved back to Dunedin, my wife’s hometown, in 2006 when we purchased our first business and from the moment I set foot in town, I knew I was home.

I have spent decades gathering broad experiences in leadership and business management.

I have spent the last 5 years as president of Baking New Zealand, representing the hopes and needs of an entire industry within the halls of parliament and in the lens of the media.

Along with my wife, I have grown several successful businesses, with a philosophy of driving waste minimisation and recycling opportunities; focusing on financial, social, environmental, and ecological sustainability.

I am proud to be a representative for the residents of our beautiful city as a Councillor and believe that, together, we can make it even better.

We made it to our target! 15 May 2023

We would just love to say a really big thank you to all our participants and donors for their support and donations to reach our target of $30,000. The difference this will make for our youth programmes is immense, and we are so grateful to be able to continue our positive mahi for young people in Clutha, Dunedin and Waitati. It was such a great day on Friday, with every participant being 'tossed' with various degrees of enthusiasm!

We will be keeping the page open for donations until the 26th of May so that you can still get whānau and friends to donate. While we have reached our target, every little bit helps to get to young people in need.

Again, thank you very much. We are so appreciative of all your support!
