I believe that life is all about finding the right balance. Although yet to find the perfect life cocktail, I imagine the ingredients have to contain a dash of adrenaline, spirit of hard work, a mixer of family & relaxation, a nip of exercise along with a swizzle stick that reminds you to laugh at oneself regularly. I accept we all need challenges and to enjoy jumping ‘into the ugly zone’ and trying new experiences. Finally, I am a firm believer that your belt should always be a good match with your shoes.

Personal Interests
I have lived on the Gold Coast for almost 25 years, with my wife Spring and our amazing son, Luca. I am a keen horseperson and enjoy all sport but have a particular fascination with trying to better myself at polo.
We live on acreage in the Gold Coast Hinterland with our horses Sheba and Frankie, and our dogs, Tucker and Venus. After putting the horses to bed at night, I like nothing more than preparing a gourmet dinner and sharing with friends over a great bottle of Australian wine.
