Outside of Govett Quilliam
Outside of work, Rebecca is kept on her toes by her young daughter and a house full of animals. When she gets the chance (and the weather cooperates) Rebecca enjoys spending time at our glorious beaches, making the most of New Plymouth's thriving café scene or relaxing behind a good book.
She is a past and present Chair and co-chair of the RMLA (Resource Management Law Association) Taranaki Branch.
