I spent my childhood roaming the globe, living in three countries by the time I was three. The pace didn’t slow down and we arrived in NZ from Zimbabwe when I was seven. England and France were home for brief spells but NZ became home base and I met Jonny when we were both 18. We were married in 1994 at St Mary’s Cathedral in Parnell and left NZ for the UK in 1999 followed by a six-year stint in Canada. Little did we know that after 16 years away we would be returning to Auckland with our three kids to come to the oldest church in Auckland. My passion is restoration. It doesn’t matter whether it is a building, or a person, I love investing in places and people and seeing them come fully alive. It is a privilege to serve the St Paul’s church family.
