Auckland's New Marketing Team Additions

Meet Auckland Campus' latest Marketing Team Additions!
Sonia Kao

Sonia is Dominion's registrar and has now become Dominion's marketing contact for our Chinese and Taiwanese market.

Sonia is from Taipei where she grew up in the suburban town of Hsin-dian.

Sonia speaks Mandarin, English, German and some Japanese! Although Sonia has only been Dominion's registrar for 12 months, she has lived in New Zealand for the last 14 years.
Sonia studied the piano in beautiful Prague where she was accepted by The Prague Conservatoire for a postgraduate course. After Prague, Sonia decided to move to Berlin for further studies at The German School of Piano to improve her performance on stage and to realise her dream of living in Germany. During her 8 month stay in Germany she travelled to all the major German cities, enjoying the marvellous German architecture and cuisine.

Her next stop was London where she studied for 2 years at the prestigious Royal College of Music thus completing her master's degree.
She enjoys her role at Dominion and says "the multi-lingual and multi-cultural environment appeals to me the most, furthermore, providing assistance to international students as a registrar is challenging and interesting".
