Monique grew up in Auckland and is an old girl of Epsom Girls’ Grammar School.
Upon graduating from the University of Auckland with a Master of Commerce (Hons) degree in Marketing, Monique has spent the past 21 years in the corporate world working across aviation, advertising, renewable energy, utilities and financial services industries both in New Zealand and Australia. She is a member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing and holds certifications in Customer Experience (Forrester, CX-Pro).
Monique’s interest in InZone stemmed from watching the inspirational documentary “In the Zone” and wanted to contribute her time, effort, and energy to supporting our rangatahi going through the InZone programme, particularly the taitamariki wāhine attending Epsom Girls’ and beyond into tertiary study.
