After two whirlwind decades, I retired as a Multi-Installer Specialist in the Service & Trade Industry. My journey began as a low-paid labourer where I learned construction’s grit and possibilities. With no formal training, just curiosity and perseverance, I progressed from installing aluminium windows and epoxy floors to locksmithing and hygienic product setups.

Each role taught me skills and resilience and eventually evolved into a series of entrepreneurial ventures. From installing aluminium windows and doors to fencing to self-closing doors and gates for kids’ safety, each blending practicality with creativity, honing into valuable skills that shaped my path.

In November 2020, I returned to New Zealand, closing that chapter to focus on sharing my knowledge, wisdom and understanding, launching new projects, giving back to the community and developing exciting projects that will soon be revealed.
