Emergency Medicine:

In 2022 I decided to revisit a 40+ year old dream of emergency medical response, began a Bachelor of Paramedicine (online) and rejoined St John Ambulance as a volunteer.

Passions and Purpose:

I am married to Lucy, father to Leah, Emily, Amanzi, and Charis, and grandfather to Alex, Blair, and Penny.

At St Matt's Anglican I worship with guitar, drums, and first aid. I have been working on learning the trumpet for some time.

Then there's motorbike travel, videography, photography, 3D printing, home automation, and creating with AI.

My purpose is to:

Do something for the good of mankind every day.

My motto is:

You cannot substitute for experience.
