Born and raised in Otorohanga in the mighty King Country, I have 16 years experience in education. Having trained and taught in Waikato, Northland, and the Bay Of Plenty, I am currently Principal of Rangiuru School in Te Puke, BOP.
"I am extremely honoured and privileged to be a co-opted executive member of Te Akataea and see it as my duty to lead and support Principals, teachers, colleagues, whanau and communities in working together towards a common goal: success for all Maori students in all schools."
“Ma whero, ma pango, ka oti ai te mahi“ with red and black, the work will be completed.
