Meet some of the Team

Craig is our cheerful, humorous valued expert on all things Umbrellas and is quick to handle enquiries day or night. When not at work, he’s likely to be visiting offspring scattered across the globe and enjoying the local fare…(think Scotland…haggis…distilleries etc).

Regan started working on the factory floor building our umbrellas. He is a fervent advocate for Shadowspec's premium range of umbrellas and is passionate about assisting people with their outdoor shade projects. Outside of work he loves running the local tracks whenever he is not eating (mac and cheese most likely).

Jonathan's role involves leading an energetic team. Having been involved in the shade industry since he left school, he has built up considerable knowledge of all sectors that our company operates in including corporates, small-medium businesses and end-users.

Chris works with our many re-sellers and dealers throughout New Zealand and Australia. If you ever find he’s out of coverage, just leave him a message and ask how the fishing went. He loves bringing family and friends together with shade, and hopes to one day write a book titled The Easy Guide to Installing Umbrellas.

Don has joined the flock at Heron Base from a distinguished career in high-end retail, ornamental art and consulting, with a keen eye for a beautiful space and how to enhance it. Don is looking forward to helping you reach those shade goals.

Shawnee has 6+ years experience in customer service. You can count on her to assist with your queries as our client support specialist. When Shawnee is not working you can catch her spending time at the beach with her dog and eating fresh seafood straight from the ocean.
