Christy returned home to Dunedin in 2008 and began working at Gallaway Cook Allan in a marketing role. Her role evolved to include the finance side of the partnership and to support this part of her role she graduated with a Dip Grad in Accounting at University of Otago in 2015 and as a CPA in 2021.

The introduction of the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act saw Christy’s role evolve further, leading to her current role.
