TIffen was born in Timaru on 4 September 1979 and attended Timaru Girls' High School, where she was head girl in 1997.[1]

She played in 117 One Day International (ODIs) and two Test matches for New Zealand. Once acknowledged as one of the best all-rounders in the game, Tiffen announced her retirement after leading her side to the final of the 2009 Women's Cricket World Cup.[2] At that time, her 2919 career ODI runs were surpassed by only six other women, and for New Zealand only Debbie Hockley exceeded her.[3] She was short-listed for the ICC Women's Player of the Year Award in 2006, eventually losing out to Karen Rolton.[2]

Tiffen was appointed a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit in the 2011 New Year Honours, for services to women's cricket.[4]

She was head coach for New Zealand women's team from April 2015[5] to March 2019.[6]
