You’re in good hands

For over twenty years, I have worked across New Zealand’s education, not-for-profit, public and private sectors, contributing to a wide range of initiatives.

When we tackle what’s important to you, I bring a lot to the table. I can apply my skills in fundraising, research, business analysis, management, strategy, marketing, and digital technology.

I can lean into my expertise in creative writing, and experiences as a queer non-binary person, who has overcome mental illness and published a book about it.

My approach to work has been challenged and changed for the better by neurodiverse perspectives. My worldview has evolved with extensive travel.

Clients appreciate my intuitive questions, straight talk, and holistic and practical approach. I’m flexible, forever learning, and (rumour has it) FUN.
