Growing up I have been raised in Te Ao Maori where I had spent much of my time helping my whanau on the Marae and staying connected with my culture. I would consider myself as a trustworthy, and dependable person who is empathic. I am the type of person who is willing to go above and beyond for others and have real life experiences that and skills that has equip me with the ability to connect with others and have similar life and culture influences that has shaped the person I am today.
