Italian-Kiwi Vince worked as a civil engineer from 1990 to 2000 before developing his IT company, Cocurullo’s Ltd, which still operates today. In 2005 Vince became very ill with what turned out to be mercury poisoning from amalgam fillings in his teeth. As a result of this, he experienced a very personal reality check that became the catalyst for his decision to enter local government and help make Whangārei District a better place to live and work.
Vince has worked as a volunteer in projects across the globe, from helping out with life-saving water projects in Africa to teaching English in Yemen, and today, he is still involved in various organisations, community groups, business networking groups and councils, all with the vision of growing Whangārei. He was elected Mayor of Whangārei in October 2022, where he lives with his wife Lee.
