Capability
I am an experienced executive, general counsel and company secretary with over 25 years’ experience across private practice and in-house legal roles and in highly regulated industries (gambling and financial services).
As General Counsel & Company Secretary for NZX/ASX listed SkyCity Entertainment Group, I gained deep experience advising CEOs, executive teams and boards on compliance and corporate governance matters and through contentious regulatory matters, including high profile regulatory investigations.
I have a reputation for providing commercial and strategic legal advice, strong and effective leadership, remaining calm under pressure, seeing the bigger picture and delivering outcomes.
