Get to know me better

Dedicated to crafting inspiring culinary experiences, drawing from lifelong passion and global expertise.

I was destined to be a chef and realized my natural ability and skills with food at an early age. Once qualified in the UK with a National Diploma and City and Guilds, I spent several years working my way to senior levels in top Restaurants and Hotels around England. However, I soon caught the travel bug and my first adventure took me to the French Ski resort Les Menuires.

By the end of the season, I was hooked on traveling and learning about the varying global gastronomy. This interest took me to France, Spain, and Italy where I worked as a private chef for families in luxury villas, where the guests included celebrities such as the famed Richard Branson.

Over the last 30 years, 16 being spent in New Zealand, I've put my passion and vast worldwide knowledge and experience with food into the unique personal food service provided by Free Range Chef.
