    Kia Ora

    I was born and raised in South Auckland, Otara and came to the Waikato in 2011. I have worked in education, becoming qualified in Early Childhood, soon after leaving school. I then became a Tertiary Educator and a National NZQA Moderator.

    I was elected onto the Board in 2012 when my son, who whakapapa back to Ngati Pakau was a student at Whitiora.

    I am looking forward to being a part of the next phase of the Whitiora School journey and working alongside my awesome fellow board members.

    Kia ora all,

    I am a born and bred King Country girl who whakapapa back to Te Atiawa, Taranaki.

    I am a wife and a mother to 3 children. A daughter at Waikato University studying Law and Forensic Psychology, a daughter in Year 9 at Hamilton Girls High School (Former Whitiora Student) and a son in year 8 at Whitiora School.

    After living in Australia for 6 years we returned to Hamilton in 2018 and in 2019 I joined the Whitiora Board of Trustees.

    I have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of a great team. The combined mahi and planning we have and continue to do for our kura and tamariki has been very rewarding for all.

    I am looking forward to pushing forward with our collective goals and seeing even more rewards as we navigate this journey that we are all on.
