I have been part of the Bream Bay Community Support Trust since 2019, working as a Receptionist and Administrator. After more than 40 years living in Bream Bay, my husband and I couldn’t imagine a better place to have raised our four boys. This community is truly something special, and I feel grateful to call it home.

​

As the first point of contact for the Trust, I’m committed to creating a welcoming, calm, and friendly experience for everyone who walks through our doors or calls for support. Whether I’m helping someone connect with our services or guiding them to other agencies, I aim to make the process as easy and reassuring as possible. It’s incredibly rewarding to see people leave feeling supported and smiling.

​

Outside of work, I love spending time with friends, family, and my moko as they explore and enjoy this beautiful place we’re lucky to call home.
