“I am an economist
with financial skills who puts people first. I am committed to ensuring that
the resources of CCDHB are allocated wisely and used well, to ensure the best
possible outcomes for patients, families, caregivers and the community at
large.
Having worked
widely overseas and within New Zealand on project development and public
administration issues, I can contribute directly to getting things done efficiently
and effectively. I will seek rapid, high quality medical responses for users of
the health service – with a focus on integrity, collaboration and
professionalism.
Currently
I am the principal day-time caregiver for my two small sons though I continue
to undertake contract work as an economic consultant. My wife is a nurse and we
are long-time residents of Island Bay. We love Wellington and feel proud to
contribute as best we can to its welfare and well-being.
