Tell us about yourself:

Originally from Los Angeles, I moved to Queenstown in 2015 in search of a new adventure. Little did I know that nine years later I'd still be here with a new life and no plans on returning to the big city life. I fell in love with Queenstown's friendly locals, stunning scenery and incredible walks - so you'll find me out on an adventure with my dog, hanging out with my chickens or having a wine with friends.

What does your typical day at Millbrook look like?

I'm typically working on a mix of big projects and daily tasks. Whether it's executing Marketing promotions and advertisements, ensuring our website stays fresh with timely updates, or working on reporting to track our progress, I have a variety of jobs on the go which keeps things interesting.

What do you love most about your job?

I love the team I work with - I'm lucky to be surrounded by fantastic, supportive team members. I also love that I get to use my creative side in this role, crafting innovative initiatives and always thinking of new ways to improve the Millbrook guest experience.

What is it that makes Millbrook so special?

Millbrook's setting and surrounding views are some of the most beautiful in the world. Even after 2.5 years at Millbrook, I'm still awestruck by the breathtaking scenery around us. Millbrook also has a supportive environment, fostering continuous learning and skill development among team members, enabling us to thrive professionally while immersed in this stunning environment.

What is the best advice you've ever been given?

In life you don't regret the things you do, you regret the things you didn't do - so take chances and make mistakes so you don't look back and say, 'what if'.

Cats or dogs?

Dogs - my dog, Macaroni, in particular :)
