Kia ora!

I am currently studying a Graduate Diploma in Teaching and Learning at Waikato University. My first placement is taking place in Room 14 with Miss Ell and her wonderful tamariki. The placement will go through till the end of term 3.

I have a degree in Design from Massey University that guided me towards the film industry in Wellington. I spent 6 years within the industry and my last 4 years working on James Cameron's Avatar sequels. I have spent the last 20 years as a hobby teaching tamariki and adults how to sail at various yacht clubs around the lower North Island.

I'm loving the change in career and really enjoying my placement here at Tītahi Bay School learning the Kura way!

Ngā mihi,
