Bringing 25 years of grounded, hands on expertise to your next project.

Great operations don’t happen by accident they are built on experience, resilience, and a deep understanding of the land.

Based in Christchurch, I am an operational leader with over 25 years of experience managing, developing, and optimising high stakes agricultural and horticultural environments across the South Island.

From pioneering ultra-premium organic viticulture to establishing strict medical-grade cultivation facilities and scaling a massive truffle plantation including seed to tree nursery operations, my line of work has been defined by executing complex, large-scale projects from the ground up.

Whether you need strategic oversight for a new development, robust compliance frameworks, or mentorship for your operational team, I provide the practical leadership required to turn ambitious land projects into sustainable, high-performing realities.

My background bridges the gap between meticulous science and practical, dirt-under-the-fingernails execution. Over the last two decades, I’ve had the privilege of leading some of the south islands most sophisticated operations.
