Board Member

I have extensive experience in governance across sport and community organisations, grounded in a values-led and relational approach to leadership. I currently serve as Deputy Chair of Women in Sport Aotearoa and have also spent time on the Sport New Zealand Board, alongside holding a range of regional and national governance roles.

My governance practice is shaped by kaupapa Māori understandings of leadership, with emphasis on whanaungatanga, collective responsibility, and upholding mana within decision-making spaces.

This is supported by completing the Te Iti Kōpara Crown Entity Governance course, and recognition as a nominee for the 2024 Women in Governance Rising Star Award. Across all board roles, I bring strengths in strategy, facilitation, and navigating complex kōrero, with a focus on governance that serves people, relationships, and long-term wellbeing.
