Training in Wing Chun – I discovered this back in 2009 and have been practicing on and off ever since.

Where did you grow up?

Mostly in Tasmania, but lived for a couple of years in different places in central and south eastern Queensland, and the Northern edge of Western Australia.

Who or what inspired(s) you to pursue your profession?

My Grandfather. He was a plumber and when I told him once that I wanted to be a plumber like him, he said “No! much better to go in to Architecture and keep your hands clean”.

THE RANDOM

What is your personal motto?

We are what we repeatedly do; excellence is not an act, but a habit.

GOOD coffee, spending time with my family, gardening and beaches on the ocean.

What is on your bucket list?

After my Wife went on a solo trip to Iceland a few years ago, my Daughter and I decided just the two of us would go for a couple of weeks to London, Paris and Edinburgh.. we haven’t managed to get there yet.
