about

I was born in Chester, UK, but in 2004, I traded the cobblestone streets for the breathtaking landscapes of New Zealand. Along with my two younger brothers and parents, we embarked on an adventure, and now, years later, I still feel fortunate to call this place home. From New Zealand’s vibrant culture to its stunning natural beauty, there’s no place I’d rather be.

My introduction to Kiwi life began with a snow season, working and snowboarding on the slopes of Mt. Ruapehu. It was here, on the mountain, that I fell in love with the country. But the adventure didn’t stop there—I also took up surfing. After 15 years of near-wipeouts and the occasional gulp of saltwater, I still can’t resist the pull of the ocean. Some might call it stubborn, but the exhilaration of catching a wave, even if it's just a three-footer, is unmatched.

What I love most about New Zealand is the endless variety of experiences. Whether it's the mountains, the beaches, or everything in between, there’s always something to discover. I’m proud to be a New Zealand citizen and dedicated to preserving this beautiful part of the world for future generations.

I believe that success isn’t about luck—it’s about taking control of your own journey. Too often, we hold ourselves back, building barriers out of fear of failure. But real progress and happiness come from stepping outside your comfort zone and taking calculated risks. As cliché as it may sound, Nike got it right: Just Do It.

So that’s my story. Born in the UK, a Kiwi at heart, chasing waves, embracing new challenges, and ready for whatever comes next.
