I have worked with Ronda for many years, when she learned that she had cancer, when she learned she only had a few years to live, when she went through Chemo and came through the other side. When she came up with the idea for TimeOut and as she developed the idea. She asked if I would be interested. Of course, I said yes.
My mother was diagnosed with Motor Neuron disease when I was 10. She was given 2 years to live while her muscles slowly degraded, she went through a divorce, setup the Motor Neuron Society for NZ, remarried and lived for 20 years to see her grandchildren.
I attended a number of MND meetings and got to know a number of the patients and their families. I know that our family and many of the MND families would have really appreciated TimeOut and access to a holiday home at no cost.
I have experience in graphic design, online marketing, project management, setting up and running a business. I am a founder and Director of Zeald. I love working with awesome people – Helping clients achieve results – Scientific optimisation, Measuring, interpreting data and continual improvement.
When I am not at work I am building roads on our Puhoi farm and hanging with my kids. I am originally from Mangawhai. I visit Mangawhai every so often to see family. But Auckland or Orewa is where the work is.
