I am of farming stock born and raised in the Nelson area. I studied at Otago University where I committed my life to Christ, and then a decade later studied at what is now Laidlaw College. I have worked in business and a number of Christian ministries. I am married to Catherine and we have four great children, and one amazing grandchild. I have a number of current involvements in various Christian organisations and have seen some of the needs and work being done first hand.
