Tammy Deans of Spring Resource Management

Tammy Deans

Director and Resource Management Specialist

I lead projects that enable regional councils and the farming sector to navigate regulatory changes to freshwater management.

I’ve lived and worked across the motu, in regions including Manawatū, Canterbury and Waikato. I now live on a small farm in South Auckland.

I spend my free time with my family, exploring the Hunua Ranges, schooling up the odd young horse.

Qualifications

  • Masters in Resource Management Planning

  • Advanced Sustainable Nutrient Management Certificate (OverseerFM) from Massey University

  • Bachelor of Science from the University of Canterbury

Life’s too short to spend time making sense of RMA jargon.

Don’t let technical documents and confusing legislation stop you from getting work done. I simplify regulatory documents and develop practical solutions.
