Having worked as an administrator for many years, I decided that a legal executive role would give me the challenge and enjoyment I needed. I have now been working in the legal field for over eight years and thoroughly enjoy my role.I like nothing more than to be on the water with my family and friends, either fishing or just enjoying the wonderful Auckland coastline. With three adult children who are involved in sport, I can often be seen on the sideline at North Harbour Hockey. I have been a board member of Immune Deficiencies Foundation of New Zealand (IDFNZ) for the past 24 years. IDFNZ supports people with diagnosed Primary Immune Deficiency (PID) disorders as well as bone marrow and liver transplant children. I enjoy being involved with IDFNZ in working towards reaching its short and long-term goals, as well as helping to bring day-to-day practical help to families.
