Taūakī Whaiaro

Ko Pirongia te māunga, Ko Waipa te awa, Ko Tainui te waka, Ko Mahanga Hourua te iwi, Ko Te Papa-o-Rotu te marae. From my soul I am Māori and a Mana Wahine I am steeped in tuturu Māori and Matauranga Māori. I work every day to pay homerage to my past teachers, mentors and my grandparents, and the values and beliefs they instilled in me. I see my role as a voice for the client because they cannot be.
