Originally from the UK I moved to New Zealand as a young child and have lived in both Wellington and Auckland. But it was Queenstown I fell in love with over 30 years ago when I followed a girl down here. That girl is now my wife and together we’ve raised three amazing kids in this incredible town which we call home!
I am passionate about Queenstown and love everything it offers: skiing, biking, rich history, stunning scenery, world class food and genuinely awesome people. I’m incredibly fortunate to help showcase this special place to the world.

I’m a North Island-born, Queenstown-adopted local who feels very lucky to call this place home. After spending much of my life chasing endless winters, skiing and snowboarding around the world, I settled in Queenstown with my family and happily embrace the long summer days just as much as the winter season.
With more than 20 years’ experience across tourism, hospitality, and the ski industry, I really enjoy helping conference and event planners make the most of Queenstown and Wānaka. I love sharing local knowledge, including the hidden gems and lesser-known details that can make an event feel truly special.

Originally from Northeast China, I arrived in New Zealand in 2018 on a Working Holiday Visa. What began as a one-year adventure gradually became the place I chose to call home, and I remain deeply grateful that this once-distant dream is now part of my everyday life. My journey in the tourism industry started here, inspired by a genuine connection to Queenstown and its unique way of life. There is magic in the simple moments - watching paragliders drift across the sky, seeing the historic steamship glide over the lake, and feeling the calm that comes from being surrounded by mountains and water. To me, Queenstown is more than a destination; it’s where my passion found purpose, and where I’m honoured to share its magic with the world.
“The Bureau provided our organisation with the necessary information to plan a successful conference. Having been briefed on our conceptual ideas the Bureau provided a list of tourism operators, their contacts details and assisted with arranging famils. Additional information on various local restaurants and wineries to meet the requirements of the delegates who operate high-end food and beverage facilities back in the US and deemed not to be missed met with universal approval.”
