Director of Operations

Catherine joined Enrich in early 2022. In 2019 she moved from the UK, where she had built a career as a lawyer specialised in advising charities and other non-profits. It has been her career goal to provide clear and practical guidance to NGOs to ensure they operate compliantly, efficiently and ethically. Alongside that she has long had a personal interest in labour rights and is passionate that all people deserve dignified work, including the dignity of being able to financially support and empower themselves and their dependents. Since moving to Hong Kong she has served voluntarily with various NGOs that support vulnerable workers and is thankful to now join in with the impressive work that Enrich does to uplift and equip the amazing community of migrant domestic workers in Hong Kong. In her free time Catherine enjoys spending time with her family and her church, and hiking and eating her way around Hong Kong. She also serves on the Board of Adoptive Families of Hong Kong.
