Experience:

I have extensive knowledge of not-for profit, kaupapa māori organisations as well as the Health and Education Sectors. This is a return to Te Wananga o Aotearoa having left in 2006 to have the first of my four tamariki. I am excited to be a part of Te Wananga o Aotearoa again and in particular Te Manawahoukura. 

Organising and supporting in anyway shape or form our team, as well as having a laugh are my two jams!
