Born in Blenheim, some decades ago. After doing my time at an all girl’s school, I joined the Forestry service, enjoyed my practical year and then junked out of Uni but went to all the bands.
Moved into IT rather by accident and have ended up as a contract Project Manager which I love (and they pay me). Did the marriage / divorce thing and exited with a lovely house in Korokoro (great views, soon to be lovely garden) plus the dog (on to version two) & cat (evil by nature).
Have played a number of sports such as Hockey, Touch Rugby & canoe polo plus been into Mountain Biking on & off for years and pretend to kayak in summer.
