I began working in DOC in 1995 and have been in various biodiversity related roles and places around New Zealand. My involvement with hihi began in 2002 when I first moved to Wellington and joined the Recovery Group as the Wellington regional representative.

I have experience in a range of threatened fauna research and management, currently with a particular focus on lizards.
