ALISON HART
Hi I’m Alison, my role is to oversee the running of the Association for past, present and future students. Basically this involves managing contracts, staff, finances and meeting the legal requirements of being an incorporated society and registered charity.
All that is a bit dry, but fortunately as we are a small team, I still get to work on the events, international activities and walk the campus putting up posters.
With a background in management and dispute resolution, I enjoy working with students, seeing them develop new skills, be successful with in their studies and move onto their new careers. With over 15 years in the role, I am lucky enough to still be in contact with many of the students who have held positions within the Association.
I love finishing with the graduation’s every year, seeing students and their family celebrating success and knowing chances are that somewhere along the way, they have attended a SANITI event or received support from one of the other services provided by the Association.
ALYSSA WATSON
Hey guys!
I’m Alyssa, the Marketing Coordinator & also International Activities Coordinator here at SANITI!
My role ranges from promoting events, designing posters, flyers & promo, running the SANITI FB page, helping out with events, to organising and venturing on trips around the region with international students.
I really enjoy being able to work alongside the awesome SANITI crew, and connecting with students on the daily - be it in the office, wandering around campus, at events or on our International Activity trips.

EVE MCGOVREN
Hello!
I'm Eve the new Employment Coordinator at SANITI.
Londoner born and bred, I've escaped the big smoke in exchange for mountain views and early morning sea swims.
My role is to help with all things job related, this includes everything from personalising CVs and Cover Letters to job searches and interview coaching. You'll also find me serving up food at some of our events and assisting with the International activities.
JAYCOB BROWN
Kia ora! My name is Jaycob, I am a student advocate and the event manager for SANITI. While both jobs are very different, it means I get to meet all sorts of people. My job(s) range from working one on one with individuals and supporting people through hard times to cooking up a storm on the bbq’s and feeding a crowd. If you feeling like a catch up or you fancy a chat, drop by. Chances are I’ll also have snacks on me.
I was born in Whanganui and since then have lived in all larger cities around NZ. I’ve travelled to other countries and still love our little country in the pacific.
I enjoy staying at home cause low key I’m a nana, it gives the opportunity to embrace one of my greatest passions. Gaming! Being a home body means I get to cook for mates and hang out. I enjoy short walks on the beach hopefully eating an ice-cream.

SHINN KRAMMER
Kia Ora! I’m Shinn Krammer. I am the current Student President for SANITI. My main role is to ensure student voices are being heard here at NMIT and nationally. I have committed myself to representing the student body on council and want to understand the issues at hand for students today while pushing for equity and fairness.
Since I am an IT student, I spend most of my time typing away at a keyboard on top of the typing I do at the SANITI office. But even though I have a deep love for writing up code, SQL queries and board report, I love a good yarn with some fellow student much more. So, if you see me around campus, I am more than happy to grab a coffee and sit down for a chat.
TONI BAIGENT
Hi, my name is Toni and I am one of the 2 student advocates working for SANITI.
I studied a Bachelor in Applied Social Sciences because I have an interest in people and their experiences of life.
I like that my role here is to connect with students and look to help by providing resources and support where there may be a lack – with the goal of getting students through to graduation.
