I’m a lifelong Bairnsdale local with over 40 years of community service. My wife, Sue, and I run a small business and I’ve been deeply involved in projects that make our region stronger.  

I’m all about action — whether it’s helping farmers rebuild after bushfires with free timber through the East Gippsland Timber Milling Project; setting up emergency housing; or supporting local teens through Youth Insearch. My work with Rotary, the CFA, and community initiatives has always been driven by a passion for helping others.  

I’ve been honoured with awards like the Paul Harris Fellowship Sapphire, but what matters most is making a difference. I’m independent, not tied to any political party, and I take a straightforward, commonsense approach.  

I’ll keep working hard to make East Gippsland a better place for everyone.
