The foundation of NH Consulting is my significant experience in contractor, consultant and client roles on major infrastructure and private sector development projects in New Zealand and Australia

About

With a background in civil and structural engineering, my career has evolved primarily into strategic project management and leadership positions. I am uniquely positioned to balance technical precision with practical construction experience, having also worked directly as a builder and developed my own residential projects.

My approach is anchored by a clear understanding of the critical success factors in any project: delivering precisely what clients expect, on schedule and within budget, while maintaining and enhancing relationships.

Away from professional commitments, I enjoy family time with my wife and two young sons, and exploring New Zealand’s outdoors through hiking, skiing and biking.
