I’ve worked with Breast Cancer Cure for nearly 20 years including 10 of those years as a Breast Cancer Cure Patron, raising funds to research and find a cure for this devastating disease.  As a woman, and business leader with a female-centric business I am passionate about the plight that so many New Zealand women and their families face when affected by Breast Cancer.
