Mark’s Career

Mark has had a varied career. He has worked as a commodities trader for the New Zealand Dairy Board and in the UK for a company trading wool, angora, leather and fish oil with countries as diverse as Russia and Japan. He was a fly-fishing guide for seven years, working in both New Zealand and North America. He has also worked as a ski instructor in Austria for 2 years. Mark’s career has been a combination of the cut-and-thrust of international business with the intimacy of one-on-one coaching and guiding.

At the centre of this is a special person whose interest in people; whose personality and communication skills combined with his experience in the no-nonsense world of business makes him unique. Having qualified in commerce and property investment, and with continuing interests in tourism and commodities trading, Mark has the big picture view – he is the go to guy.

It's simple really- he makes it happen.

Mark’s Interests and Passions

As well as being a proud husband and father of three boys, Mark’s first love is fly-fishing which he has done over two-thirds of his life. Mark has worked as a fly fishing guide for several years and has been fly fishing all over the world; including Atlantic salmon fishing in Iceland, bonefishing in Belize, tarpon fishing in Mexico, permit fishing in Costa Rica, giant trevally in Australia, high country trout in Malawi, tiger fishing in Zimbabwe and saltwater fly throughout New Zealand. Skiing has also played a large part in Mark's life culminating in two years ski instructing at Kitzbuhel in Austria.
