Mike and I emigrated to Christchurch New Zealand back in Sept 2000, with our three young daughters. We had never visited NZ before we emigrated and arrived with no job and just 8000 pounds in our pocket (all we owned in the world). Mike was offered two jobs in the first week of being here, he was a computer systems engineer back then!

Mike and I have worked with migrants families since 2005 and I have been with NZIA the very beginning (Nov 2011) Iooking after the business side of things, social media and supporting Yosi at reception etc.

Outside of worktime I love painting which is my newest hobby, tennis, walking and hanging out with our daughter’s dog Mildred.
