Facilitator Directory

Based in: Wellington. 

Broader area of facilitation: I’m available to facilitate face-to-face workshops in Wellington and the greater Wellington area, including Kāpiti Coast and Hutt Valley, and in Marlborough as well. I enjoy delivering our seminars and courses in person but am equally happy to do any of the webinar series online for teams that have embraced flexible working arrangements or are not all in one location. 

Sorted at Work courses I'm available to facilitate: All of them. 

Professional qualifications: I started an accounting degree but realised we’re not all academics, so entered banking and completed a banking certificate instead. I also hold a certificate from the New Zealand Payroll Practitioners Association. 

What inspired me to become a Sorted at Work facilitator: Twenty-eight years in banking highlighted for me how little financial literacy was valued as part of our overall education system, and also its importance in enabling more of our community to live financially stress-free lives and enter retirement with better financial security. I became passionate about seeing others succeed and gain confidence through learning, be it about money or how to navigate a computer, so was excited to join the Sorted facilitator team in 2015.  

What people can expect from my sessions: I think learning should be fun, interactive and accessible, as we all learn in different ways. Expect some sharing of examples and relatable stories, some reading material and some online tools and activities too. 

What I enjoy most about being a Sorted at Work facilitator: I enjoy finding a connection with people and seeing them growing in confidence during workshops – it’s such a privilege. When participants share their experiences with the group, it provides a wonderful opportunity for us all to learn from a different perspective, and I’m always grateful for the opportunity.
