BRIEF PERSONAL HISTORY
I was born in Hamilton, N.Z. on the 13th November 1959. I lived in Hamilton until the end of 1977. In 1978 I was accepted in to the R.N.Z.A.F. and stayed in the R.N.Z.A.F for three years. At the end of this time I moved to Wellington where I had various employment.

While in Wellington I married and my oldest son (Shane) was born at the Lower Hutt hospital. In 1985 we decided to move to Hamilton, where on arrival I applied for and was accepted to join Alfa Laval. During the 10 years that I had employment with Alfa Laval I had various jobs, finally as Purchasing Officer.

During these 10 years my second son (Craig) was born and shortly thereafter I separated form my ex-wife. In 1994 my ex-wife asked me to have Craig full-time, which I was happy to do. In 1995 my ex-wife decided to move away from Hamilton and asked if I would also have Shane. At this stage I felt that it was unfair to both Alfa Laval and to my children to work full time and to look after them, so I decided to finish working and to look after them full time.

In 1996 I decided to utilise the time that I had at home while Shane and Craig were at school and go to Waikato Polytechnic to learn about computers, Certificate in Business Computing (CBC). While normally this course is a one year full time course, I felt that it was better for me to do this part-time over two years.

In 1998 I decided to move to Tauranga to continue my education where I graduated in CBC and then continued on to complete Diploma in Business computing in 1999.
