My commitment to social justice and my love of words shows up in everything I do. It's woven through my whakapapa. My ancestors are Irish, Scottish, Jewish and Ngāpuhi - people known for resilience, hard work, and storytelling.

My values of kindness, integrity, respect, and fairness underpin my relationships and the way I work. My drive for social change is grounded in experience across community, government and international development sectors. I am an Atlantic Fellow for Social Equity. I have a Masters in Social Change Leadership and a Bachelor of Communication Studies.

I'm passionate about community-led change and how people and organisations can contribute to fulfilling the vision of Te Tiriti o Waitangi. I am the Tangata Tiriti Co-Chair of Hui E! Community Aotearoa and a Trustee of ActionStation Aotearoa. I'm also a mum, wife, daughter, sister, aunty and friend. I love whānau, music, nature, coffee and my dog Milo.

I’m good at designing and facilitating workshops and writing… How can I help?
