I’ve been self-employed my entire career.

I was born to a risk-taking entrepreneurial father who built a successful life in Australia after immigrating in 1950 with pennies in his pocket. As a result, I learned early on the need to drive your destiny.

My career has spanned many years in the property and hospitality sectors and, more recently, as a Sydney-based business advisor applying my over 30 years of experience in the commercial world. While I’ve seen several commercial successes during this time, I’ve also had a number of setbacks along the way.

Through these setbacks, not only at a business level but in my personal life, I’ve gathered many life lessons and deep learnings.

I have been sharing these lessons with clients through coaching and mentoring to achieve transformative change from driving executive-level project management, guiding the decisions of high-net-worth investors and family offices, or in a support role as a thinking partner professional sounding board.

As a believer in lifelong learning, I’ve recently completed training with aletheiacoaching.com This training will allow me to bring another dimension of practice to clients seeking to open themselves further to the power of their innate resourcefulness.

Teamwork and collaboration come as second nature to me. I was blessed to be a Randwick Rugby player from 1978 until 1997, notching up over 350 games – and captaining numerous Randwick teams, including first grade, from 1995-1997.

In recent years I have had the privilege of participating as a Lifeline crisis supporter. This experience has given me an even deeper insight into some of the issues affecting modern societies.

My partner, Anthia, and I share a home in Alexandria, Sydney. When we’re not working in and on our businesses and personal development, we are cooking, eating, exercising, and connecting with family & friends.
