Looking after our natural world is really important, and I am thrilled that we have the chance to work together to make a difference. I come from Rotorua originally, but I now call windy Te Whanganui-a-Tara | Wellington home. Before Forest & Bird, I worked in a museum, and as an ECE and Primary School teacher. I’m currently our KCC Manager. I also put together our Wild Things magazines. I used to work closely with our Forest & Bird Youth (our network of environmentally minded 14–25-year-olds) too.

Long sandy beaches in Southern California served as the foundation of my passion for biophilia (love of nature). In Aotearoa New Zealand, I’ve been privileged to mentor the next generation of leaders through outdoor classrooms – from the rocky coastal shores of Matiu/Somes Island to school gardens of Te Whanganui-a-Tara. In my role as KCC Advisor, I’m honoured to support our volunteers and help even more kids develop their own kaitiakitanga. I am now based in Whanganui.

As a kid I loved learning about animals and plants and being in nature, whether it was the bush, beach or my backyard. And I still do! I’ve lived in various places around NZ but have made my home in Te Whanganui a Tara | Wellington. I’ve been a teacher and adult tutor, and worked in government departments on policy. But because of my interest in conservation, I’m now studying at university to become a science communicator. I’m thrilled to be working at Forest and Bird as the KCC Administrator!
