My name is Kerryn Haughton (O’Hare). I am a proudly South African audit manager with a love for people and teamwork. I am a sports fanatic! I play hockey and enjoy running, more recently challenging myself with some of Cape Town’s mountain trails. I am a fur mom to Coco and recently got married to my now husband Jon. We live in Cape Town and am very privileged to be close to the beautiful Wine Routes which I thoroughly enjoy visiting. Family is very important to me, I am very blessed to spend a lot of time with both my siblings, our bonds have taught us to stay humble, competitive and always supportive. I enjoy working with the young trainees and have a passion for teaching, training and mentoring. My favourite quote that drives me every day is "Crave the result so intensely that the work is irrelevant”.
