Director at Croys since 2006. Previously a registered nurse with post graduate studies in psychology and sociology followed by an accountancy degree at Lincoln University.

I have been in the accounting profession since graduating in 1994 and involved in the NZ Institute of Chartered Accountants as councilor for the region, member of the National Public Practice and National Professional Development committees.

My husband, Barry and I have three adult children. I am passionate about the success of Croys, our team and our clients. My other passion is physical fitness, primarily cycling and swimming.

I have been part of the team at Croys since the start in 1993, (with a couple of years accounting experience prior to that).I work alongside the accounting teams and perform a client consulting role.

I am CA qualified and have a B Com Ag degree, majoring in farm management, and a Post Grad Diploma in Commerce from Lincoln College.

Away from work I'm involved in the coaching and administration of local cricket and rugby, along with other community activities.

I grew up in the Nelson area where my parents owned motels. I graduated from Canterbury University with a B.Com in 1978 and have been a C A since 1985. On leaving university I moved to Wellington where I worked as assistant Financial Accountant for Ford Motor Co NZ.  Two years later I travelled overseas, working at various jobs.  On my return to NZ, I worked as Company Accountant for Turners Office Products, in Christchurch, for 13 years. Marrying my husband Jim, meant moving to Mid Canterbury and an obvious diversification and interest in farm accounting.

I have been working at Croys since 1996. Outside of work, a lot of my spare time is involved with my son’s interest in sport. I particularly enjoy his love of skiing and water sports, so this is no onerous task. When spare time allows I like to play golf, garden and various hand crafts.

Born in Gore, I moved to Ashburton as a child, although have never quite lost the Southland accent. I have been at Croys Ltd since graduating from Lincoln University in 2002 with a Bachelor of Commerce with First Class Honours. I became a Chartered Accountant in 2005 and am now working part time after having my daughter Elliott (Ellie) in 2010.  My husband Steve is the Parts Manager at Claas Harvest Centre and is a volunteer fire fighter.  Outside of work you’ll find me busy at my other job of being Ellie’s mum or spending time with friends and my large extended family.

I grew up on a farm at Winchmore and went to Ashburton College before heading to Lincoln University. After graduating from Lincoln in 1998 with a BCM in Finance I began work in an accounting office.

I joined the Croys team in 2004 and since then have attained my ACA qualification.

Due to my rural background I have an interest in farm accounting. Outside of work my spare time is involved with my interest in music, renovating my house and spending time with family and friends.

I’m a local girl, raised on a farm on the outskirts of Ashburton.  I joined Croys in 2003 and completed my NZ Diploma in Business in 2006.  I have since become an Associate Chartered Accountant.

In my spare time I enjoy being a volunteer on Netball Committees, watching all sports, playing netball and spending time with family and friends.

I grew up on a farm at Winchmore and went to Methven High School. After leaving school at the end of 1985, I spent 14 years working on the farm. Included in this was time spent working in Western Australia, and also working for contractors in Mid-Canterbury.

I changed career to accounting in 2000, and in May 2005 joined Croys Ltd. While I was working, I studied for, and gained a Business Diploma. I am now ACA qualified.

The studying was slowed down for a few years after my two daughters were born. They now occupy my spare time, and I enjoy watching them grow up.

I have enjoyed working at Croys Ltd for the last 12 years. Prior to working here, I worked at PGG Trust, in Ashburton & Christchurch & Brophy Knight & Partners.

I am married to Owen & we have one son, Daniel & a loopy dog named Sootie. Outside work I enjoy watching & supporting Daniel playing & Owen Refereeing football.

My other interests include harness racing, walking Sootie, reading & spending time with our friends and extended families.
