I’m a Planning Consultant based in Central Otago, where I live, work, and play with my husband and young family. Having called this region home for many years, I proudly consider myself a local. 

With over 15 years of experience in resource management, I’ve worked on both sides of the fence—within regional and district Councils as well as in the private sector. My background as a farmer and my qualification in real estate add extra strings to my bow, giving me a unique perspective on land use and development. 

I specialise in preparing, lodging, and facilitating resource consents through the Council process. From presenting evidence at hearings to engaging with submitters on notified applications, I bring clarity and confidence to projects. My gentle, approachable nature has helped me build strong relationships with Councils, surveyors, engineers, contractors, agronomists, ecologists, and landscape architects—the “dream team” that makes projects possible. 

Outside of work, you’ll find me running through the Central Otago hills with friends, or cheering on my kids at the ice rink and swimming pool.
