Daniel Farrell, CAMS

At the beginning of August, I completed a walk up the 1,103 stairs of the Sky Tower to raise money for Blood Cancer NZ. Donations are still open until the end of September. If you're willing and able, I would appreciate any donations using the donate button above.

Kia ora, I’m Daniel — someone who’s spent my life working with people, whether that’s in community organisations, customer‑facing roles, or helping others navigate complex systems. My background spans law, financial crime prevention, volunteering, radio, and student governance, and I’ve found that variety gives me a grounded understanding of how different people see the world. As my CV puts it, it’s given me “a unique perspective and ability to have a better understanding of the context of a range of stakeholders.”

I’m legally trained, a Certified Anti‑Money Laundering Specialist, and someone who enjoys making complicated things clearer — whether that’s through public speaking, writing, or everyday conversations. I’ve also produced published research and presented at conferences, but the work I’m proudest of is the kind that helps people feel informed, supported, or understood.

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me at a game, discovering new music, or planning a weekend escape. I value community, curiosity, and doing things with integrity.
