Member Spotlight - Virginia Ghiglione.

Virginia Ghiglione is a technician in the College of Creative Arts, at Massey University Wellington Campus. She’s also a General Staff Rep on the National Women’s Committee.

“I’m all about community. I believe that the saying ‘it takes a village’ applies to everything in life. At work, when you’re part of the union, you always have a community that has your back. In good and bad times, you’re never alone! That is exactly why I wanted to take a union role, so I can be that community for my colleagues, and support others when they need it the most.

“In my role I love the diverse range of creative people and projects I get to work with: my tech team, the academics, and the students. Every semester is different, every day is different. But this can also be a challenge! Because we have to be quick on our feet and be ready to respond to last minute issues all across the college!”
