I moved with my family to the Carpentaria Shire late March 2008. I have 20 years experience in working for Local Government, having previously worked in Central West NSW (Condobolin and Forbes) for 16 years and Northern NSW (Ballina) for three years. My wife, Melissa, and I decided to move to the far north so that we could experience the Gulf lifestyle while our two sons are young. We have two boys, Haydon and Jack, aged ten and three. My role with Council is to ensure the delivery of major infrastructure projects such as the Karumba Sewer Scheme, the Normanton Water Supply and Karumba Airport upgrade. I will hopefully be able to implement improved ways of delivering services to the communities of Normanton and Karumba through  the experience I have gained during my career. I am delighted to be serving such a welcoming and progressive community.
