About Me

“With over 25 years of entrepreneurial experience, I've launched numerous successful digital ventures, tackling complex challenges within the sector. Dedicated to data and guided by a people-first insight focus combined with design-based thinking, I lead the development of innovative technology solutions that improve outcomes. Regardless of the "hat" I wear, whether in the commercial or non-profit sphere, my passion remains the same - driving meaningful change. My hope is that through incremental improvements seen from a macro perspective, we can enable a more equitable future. Energised by the prospect of a brighter, more inclusive future, I proudly whakapapa Ngāi Tahu and serve as a kaitiaki Rōpū Māori member on a number of advisory boards. At the core of my work is a dedication to nurturing the community through mentorship, public speaking, and initiatives such as establishing Piha Matariki and leading the Cyclone Gabrielle response in Piha (my hometown).”
