Meet the Team

Originally from Hamilton, I moved to the Bay in 2021 with my family after almost 20 yrs in Australia, residing just outside of Katikati on an avocado orchard with my hubby, teenage son and furry friend.  With a Post-Grad in Human Resources Management and after many years in People & Culture roles in NZ and overseas, I branched out into Executive roles including manufacturing, logistics, marcomms and risk management.  Currently the GM - Operations for Quayside Holdings (a $2.8 billion investment company focussed on intergenerational wealth for the Bay of Plenty), I also run my own HR business, am the Event Manager for Beach 5s rugby in Australia and N.Z, and I am privileged to be a Board Director on the Bay of Plenty Rugby Union.

I am rugby mad, with a real love for travel and the outdoors with a family that focusses on 'active' relaxing.  Our orcharding introduction has been a tough one, but with challenge comes opportunity, including working with Hume in an industry that is dynamic and has a lot of change on the horizon.
