BCom, PGDip (Business Studies), MABTS (Western Seminary)

I was raised in Bahrain (the "Island of Pearls"), before moving to Dunedin, New Zealand, in 2005 to study at the University of Otago.

I am passionate about presenting the Scriptures as a unified story that leads to Jesus of Nazareth—the all-glorious and all-satisfying King of the universe. My ministry is centred on faithful Bible exposition, feeding the flock, cultivating a gospel culture, intentional discipleship, and developing future leaders. I currently serve at Manurewa Bible Church.

To further equip myself for ministry, I recently completed a Master of Arts in Biblical and Theological Studies through Western Seminary, with a special interest in biblical languages and biblical theology.

Before pursuing ministry more fully, I spent nearly a decade in team leadership roles with Vodafone New Zealand, where I loved fostering great teams and working together to achieve our common goals.

My wife, Skye, and I live in Auckland with our children, Chloe and Darius. As a family, we love serving others, hanging with family and friends, movies, tacos, and spending time at the beach.
