Simon Park QSM JP
Founder & CEO of Immigration Trust
He brings his experience as a migrant to NZ, excellence, and professionalism to his service for people who need immigration advice in various NZ immigration matters.
Simon considers himself in the category of “boundary people”. These are the individuals who sit on the boundary of two countries; those who still maintain a connection with their home country and at the same time are completely immersed in their new, adopted society. He introduced the concept for the first time when he wrote for www.interest.co.nz.
