My background includes some 20 years in Sales, Marketing and Account Management roles with World leading IT companies - IBM, Compaq Computer and Hewlett Packard.

The last 15 years I have been a Publishing Director at World Magazine specialising in strategic planning, publishing and sales management within the luxury brand market segment.

These roles have equipped me with valuable skills in sales, communication, negotiation, and relationship building.

Outside of work I enjoy pilates, interior design, travel and I have just started golf. These activities help me maintain a balanced life and inspire creativity in my work.

I have lived in Matakana for the last ten years and enjoy the relaxed lifestyle the region is known for.
