My happy place: my favourite camping spot in the Orongorongo Valley

Thank you for visting my site. This was first created because some friends overseas wanted to read my sermons and keep up with what I was doing, but it has has now evolved into a sampler of my life and my writing.

I am an OIA and privacy specialist, science communicator, storyteller, content creator, tramper, preacher, theologian, astronomer, husband, father, and grandfather. I work as a Senior Advisor at the Environmental Protection Authority and I am currently learning to play the great highland bagpipe.

I was also a prison chaplaincy volunteer for many years and I remain involved with prison ministry to death row inmates in the USA through Dismas International and Voices for Death Row Inmates.
