President Ruth and Christine

Christine says:

  • Current Chapter: Warmly retired and looking forward to channeling my time and energy into the Burton community.

 

My Professional Journey (The Organized & Driven Side)

  • Automotive Project Management: I spent years working within a fast-paced project management team in the automotive industry. It gave me a strong backbone, a love for teamwork, and a knack for keeping things moving forward!
  • Dual-Qualified Secretary: I am also qualified as both a legal secretary and a private medical secretary, which trained me to have a sharp eye for detail and a highly organised mind.

 

My Personal Journey (The Caring & Resilient Side)

  • Dedicated Caregiver: For several years, I was the primary caregiver for my  husband during his journey with vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. This chapter of my life took immense strength and devotion. It gave me a profound empathy for others and a firsthand understanding of just how vital a caring, supportive community truly is.

 

What I Bring to Rotary

  • A unique blend of practical project skills, deep compassion, and a resilient spirit. I am ready to roll up my sleeves, support my fellow members, and help make a real difference locally.
