Shannon is passionate about the arts and at school she delved
into a number of school-based and extracurricular activities that
reflected this passion. In her final years at school she was a
member of the Arts Festival Committee and leader of Wearable Arts
within the school.
A quietly confident and friendly person, Shannon has the ability
to build relationships quickly and the Human Resources Manager at
Fonterra Brands said that this skill gave her "added advantage in
the ever-changing landscape in our company's FMCG environment".
Shannon's creative abilities and love for a range of artistic
disciplines stretched into her tertiary study at Natcoll. She
completed a Certificate in Digital Media in 2009 as the pre
requisite for a Diploma in Graphic Design, which Shannon graduated
from in June 2011. She now aims to do a number of contract jobs to
utilise her design skills and expand her portfolio.
