Renae O'Connell

Hi, I’m Renae O’Connell and I am excited to join the ABWM committee as Secretary.

I am from Australia and arrived in KL with my husband during the pandemic! My start here was a little tough but it has only improved and I am now loving the expat life. I have a large family back in Australia, adult step kids, grandkids, brothers, sisters-in-laws, nieces, nephews and cousins. Luckily we have a large apartment for them all to visit!

I have a professional background in Education and Health Care, most recently being a Paramedic for 15 years. It was such a change to move from full-time work to no work at all, hence I am really looking forward to volunteering with such a wonderful association.

I enjoy walking, hiking, gym, yoga, sewing, travelling and enjoying all the wonderful food here!
