I am a local business owner and company director with more than 35 years of community service, including the Army Reserve, SES and RFS. This service has been recognised through several medals and awards. Been a member of Castle Hill RSL for more than 23 years, current sub-Branch member and have managed its website for 10 years. Castle Hill RSL has played an important role in my family’s life, just as community service has been central to mine. I am committed to maintaining the club’s family-focused values, supporting its sub-clubs, and preserving the memories and legacy of those who served.

As a Hills resident for more than 40 years, I have been a frequent visitor to our club, as have my wife, children and now grandchildren. During this time we have seen the club go from strength to strength, supporting the community in many ways, including both social and sport. I would like to “give back” to our club as it continues to prosper and expand. With more than 60 years experience in local and international business at all levels, including Executive, I desire to support the Board for the benefit of the club and members.
