I am a Southland girl, having completed my tertiary education part-time at SIT via Otago University while working for McCulloch & Partners Chartered Accountants. I took my OE to the UK in 1989 and worked for Harrods International at Heathrow Airport. After two and a half years and meeting my Christchurch based husband to be – Paul, we returned to Christchurch. I worked as a Management Accountant for Canterbury Health for five years before our three children were born.
Gradually I started assisting small businesses, sports clubs and NPOs with bookkeeping, wages, GST and account preparation and as time has allowed the small client base has grown. I have become very familiar with the Xero accounting & reporting package and this has allowed me to be much more time efficient.
I met the Dutton family eight years ago, through our daughters who have remained very close friends. My position at Duxton Dental is to manage the financial side of the business working alongside the Admin team, and to provide support to Grahame & Christine with financial reporting.
