WHAT is your business:
Tart Bakery (and Synergia - a consulting firm)
BACKGROUND:
My career started in journalism. For the past 25 years I have worked in healthcare. Firstly, managing health services and for the last 15 years building a consultancy firm that designs health and social services and creates data-analytic infrastructure. More importantly, I help my wife, Philippa, manage Tart. Which means mopping floors, paying staff and being really handy with a drill and hammer. Between times we have brought up five children.
WHY did you join Grey Lynn & Around: I wanted to drive community improvement projects and build better local business networks.
WHERE do you live:
Hakanoa Street, Grey Lynn. Tart is in Grey Lynn village and Synergia is just off Ponsonby Road, so we are 100% local.
