PANEL SPEAKER TWO
CHARISE PEREZ
Charise studied at Victoria University where she graduated with a degree in Psychology and Criminology. Whilst studying, she worked as an Authorised Officer for Police at the Wellington Central station cells. (An Authorised Officer is someone who performs specific policing roles but does not have all the powers of a sworn constables). After 18 months she became a Police Constable. She is stationed at the Hutt Valley Quarters in the Public Safety Team – the first responders to 111 calls.
Charise is in her early twenties but has already witnessed the confronting realities of life and policing firsthand. Yet through it all, it is the “yes” and the promises of God that continue to guide her, strengthen her, and fulfil His purpose in her life.
Charise serves as a Worship Leader in her church Epicentre and lives with her family in Lower Hutt.
