Nick is proudly Ngāi Tahu (Ngāti Huirapa, Ngāti Māmoe, Ngāti Waitaha). His tupuna (fifth great-grandfather, to be precise) was South Island rangatira, missionary guide and pre-Treaty warrior, Te Rehe. Te Rehe is also the namesake for our solar network, which allows us to further our kaitiakitanga (guardianship, stewardship) with our community as part of our Simply Sustainable™ initiative.
Married with two children, Nick is a wine appreciator and a passionate apiarist, who enjoys duck hunting, conservation, skiing, and restoring his Series 1 Land Rover. He is a keen follower of history (including New Zealand history). His areas of interest include the Scots, the Crusades, and his childhood hero, the flying ace, Manfred von Richtofen - 'The Red Baron'.
Since 2016, Nick has authored over 400 financial columns for Hawke’s Bay Today and NZ Herald and co-hosts The Adviser Talk podcast, our podcast channel.
