I have have been a design engineer for more than 25 years.

Starting out with an NZCE (Mechanical), I worked as a welder/fabricator for a number of years in the UK.

Returning to New Zealand, I worked in the tech/manufacturing sector in Christchurch before returning to study and gaining a degree in Mechanical Engineering at Canterbury University.

I then worked as a design engineer for a number of years for companies in the both the manufacturing and design sector before joining iDesign Solutions as a director in 2005.

Due to the upheavals of the 2011 Christchurch earthquakes I became the sole director, then in 2014 iDesign moved its operations to Brightwater, just outside of Nelson, where I continue to design for a New Zealand wide client base.
