About Me
I am a medical graduate from the University of Auckland (2009) Post Grad Diploma in Child Health (Otago 2011) MNZCGP (2013).
I am a medical graduate from the University of Auckland and it was during my early training years that I discovered my passion for general practice. I completed my intern years at Hawkes Bay hospital and went on to complete a post graduate diploma in child health before entering into General Practice training in 2012. I am currently working toward my GP Fellowship.
I was born and bred in Pukekohe and I know the Franklin area well. I am married with twin daughters and a son. My interests outside of work include family, sport, theatre and baking.
