I’m happiest when I’m in the water. I have been a Master swimmer for many years and hold a number of State records. I surf most days and scuba dive on a regular basis.
While I am now retired I remain passionate about education and help out the local school where I now live. I have held a number of teaching positions overseas and for the last 15 years of my career held the role of Headmaster/Principal. My last position was running a community school on the Falkland Islands.
I started my working life completing a building apprenticeship. The skills learnt during this period have been invaluable in renovating houses. The house at Glebe was purchased approximately 20 years ago in a semi derelict state. The renovation of the house has been completed by me in a number of stages as time permitted. At the time of purchase Glebe was a forgotten or unknown suburb of Hobart but over the years due to it close walking proximity to Hobart it has become highly desirable.
Prior to leaving for the Falkland Islands I decided to airbnb both my properties (Ellis Cottage, Glebe, Hobart and Ellis Cottage by the Sea, Stewarts Bay, Port Arthur). This has now turned into my retirement job and I love nothing more than proving a beautiful home for guests to relax and enjoy.
