Hey team,
I'm a migrant from Southland and made the journey up to the beautiful Nelson/Tasman area late in 2018 and have enjoyed calling this place home ever since. My background is in the forestry industry, however, I'm looking forward to branching out onto the dancefloor for the cause.
My wife Hazel is a passionate dancer who has been a part of the Dancing For A Cause family since 2020. She has been competing and teaching dance for over 25 years and despite the impressive résumé and the continual questions from family and friends about how I should now be a good dancer, these feet still lack in the coordination department.
In the 2023 DFAC event, I had the 'pleasure' of being called out by Hazel's dance partner as one of his nominees, thanks Ryan Edwards. I'm always quick to put a hand up to help out, especially for a good cause, so I couldn't turn down the opportunity to showcase what these Southland Stumps can do, whilst doing my bit to help the fundraising campaign for Hospice.
I'm looking forward to the journey ahead and ask that everyone get in behind the contestants, to get as much fundraising as possible for Hospice, so they can continue providing their amazing services to those in need.
And to Hazel, may the best Black win.
