Meet the team


I joined the Wintec Venues team in 2021; with an extensive background in the event industry, I felt right at home joining the team as the Audio Visual Events Technician. Curating and working with clients' technical envisions for their events excites me. I enjoy taking straightforward or complex requests and bringing them to life; it gives me joy to see the challenge come to life. I’m eager to work with you and make your AV idea a reality in our venue.
Outside of work, I’m a freelance Lighting and Visual Designer for Artists in the Live Music Industry, touring and playing shows during the weekends and holidays. I also enjoy holidays away with my partner, wakeboarding, and good times with mates!

I’ve had the privilege of working part time in the venues team since 2012. I love the fact that there tends to be no two days the same, the flexibility my role offers, and the passion my fellow colleagues demonstrate when putting awesome events together and seeing the end result.
I grew up in Hamilton and live on three acres with my husband, two children, an extremely boisterous English Staffy, a cat, and a couple of steers in the paddock. Outside of work I am a strong supporter of my children’s sporting and school activities (taxi driver), I enjoy gardening as a stress reliever and love a glass of Pinot Noir to wind down my day.

I began working at Wintec in 2004 in a similar role and then was fortunate enough to join the venues team in 2011. Since then, there has been a variety of clients through The Training Space, and we especially appreciate our longstanding clients.
I have lived in Hamilton for 25+ years, and it’s a great place to relax and enjoy some of the cafes and restaurants on offer. I like to head out on the cycle trails when I can, as there is so much to explore, catch up with friends on weekends, and go to the movies and live theatre when it's on.
