I am most privileged to be part of the wonderful community here at Grey Lynn School and I am honoured to be your Leader of Learning; as your Principal.

I have had many wonderful opportunities to grow my leadership and build my teaching experiences in Auckland.  I have worked at schools in Northland, the East Coast, Rotorua and Waikato, and most recently at Cornwall Park District School.  I taught across all age groups from New Entrants to Year 11 students. 

I am passionate about enabling students to know and be able to share their personal and collective strengths, and identify and develop the next steps for their individual learning journeys. I am passionate about learning and stretching by having a growth mindset.

My whanau are my husband Stan, who is also a school principal, and my children Te Kahurangi and Tanira.  They are my greatest strength and support. I love spending quality time with whanau and friends, travelling to new destinations, all things foodie, and don't forget the shopping!
