During this time I also co-founded the Tauranga Cloud Expo (www.taurangacloud.com) - an annual event giving Bay of Plenty business owners the chance to interact with NZs best cloud software companies and attend free educational workshops.I was awarded NZBAI Community Contributor the Year 2014 and had the opportunity to speak at Xerocon 2015 on the "Evolution of Bookkeeping in NZ"I represented Xero and WorkflowMax at many local events including the YellowPages BizExpo and Priority One Technology for Smarter Business ExpoDuring this time I worked with 100s of inspiring and wonderful clients and learnt a heck of a lot about myself and about business. I gained immense satisfaction in helping businesses function more efficiently, have real time information and understand their numbers better - as well as building many lifetime friendships along the way. In September 2014 I had my first child, and while the business continued to thrive while I reduced my hours to tend to motherhood, I decided that for this season, the best thing was to sell the business. Under the guidance of my mentor, Ian Chitty, we worked towards this goal and I was very pleased to find a fantastic new owner, Helen Schafer. Following the sale of the business, because I truly loved the work I did, I remained as an employee for a further year in the business - specialising in Xero, WorkflowMax, Vend and Unleashed.
