Biography

In my day job I am responsible for leading our Corporate & Government sales teams who provide the full suite of fixed networking and mobility solutions to Enterprise, Local and Central Government customers. With over 20 years of telecommunications experience, you could say that it is a bit of a passion of mine. Guiding New Zealand businesses to more efficient and resilient telecommunications solutions is something we take pride in at 2degrees.

Outside of work I am a proud father of 3 children and a keen but slow and steady trail runner and a big-time armchair sports fan!
