I am the second youngest of 7 children ( 5 brothers and 1 sister). The first half of my life was spent growing up in West Auckland and the other half in Penrith, Sydney. Earlier this year I moved back to Aotearoa to reconnect with my whānau and Te Ao Māori.
I studied and worked in Early Childhood Education for seven years and plan to pursue studies to one day become a secondary teacher. I spent a short time working as a teacher aide at Kaitaia College, before starting here at InZone Education.
Activities I enjoy include: learning about other nationalities, cultures and religions as well as getting to know people. I am very excited to build strong, positive and respectful relationships with the kōhine, whānau and other kaimahi at InZone.
