Donna started with Priority Projects in 2011 bringing with her a wealth of Project Management knowledge.  Starting her working career in Real Estate administration then moving to project administration and property management she gained 20 invaluable years’ experience dealing in lease negotiations, tenancy agreements, construction contracts, consent applications and subcontractor management.

 

In addition to that she owned and managed a dairy farm where she developed a new state-of-the art property, managed staff and suppliers while building up an enviable herd breeding programme.

 

Starting with Priority Projects immediately post Feb 2011 earthquakes meant her first projects involved re-homing businesses in Canterbury, quickly setting up temporary offices in less-than-ideal conditions.    During that time and since, Donna has assisted many of our clients with their dealings with insurers, always focussed on what they are entitled to and building up a substantial portfolio of earthquake repairs. 

 

Donna has managed multi-storey new builds for clients who lost their commercial properties in the earthquake along with significant rebuilds in the residential sector for those same clients.

 

Donna is recognised for her keen attention to detail and strong organisational abilities.  A natural leader and effective communicator, she excels at co-ordinating teams, managing resources and ensuring she delivers projects that exceed expectations. 

 

Time outside of work is spent on her lifestyle property, caring for her dogs and horses while participating in community initiatives.  She is a person with strong business ethics and personal values making her a key member of the Priority Projects team.
