He uri tēnei nō Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Wai, Te Rarawa, Ingarangi me Te Waiariki, Ngāti Korora. Born and raised in Whangārei(Te Tai Tokerau) I am never far from home, currently based in both the Mather Solutions Tāmaki Makaurau office and Te Tai Tokerau.
Presently a Consultant at Mather Solutions specialising in strategic organisational transformation, governance advisory, Community, Iwi and Hapū engagement, Te Tiriti-led project and policy Initiatives and enhancing māori cultural capability across all organisation levels.
Concurrently, I also serve as a Trustee on the History of Aotearoa(HĀ) Charitable Trust Board and I am passionate about creating safe learning environments for our communities to embrace our shared history and imagine our shared future, as well as empowering students to be active change-makers in our communities.
Unapologetically proud to be Māori & proud to share our culture with the world. Fluent in te reo māori and a second language learner, I remain committed to te reo māori revitalisation, our taiao, rangatahi-led change and supporting our communities to safely navigate and envision a future guided by our history and Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
