Kristina was one of Springbank’s first students, having started in 1997. Since finishing school, Kristina has left New Zealand and completed a Bachelor of Science in Accounting, and a Masters in Accounting from the University of Florida, a top tier university in the USA. She has recently passed all four parts of the CPA exam on her first attemptĀ (a feat achieved by only 10% of candidates in the USA), and currently works as an assurance associate for PricewaterhouseCoopers in Tampa, Florida. Kristina is well known by ex-students for her kind, generous nature and her bubbly personality. She is an excellent example of a Kerikeri student excelling on the world stage in her chosen career.
Kristina is also a VitaTax Volunteer, which is a Government funded organization that provides free tax return preparation for low income, elderly, disabled and limited English speaking people throughout the USA.
