My kaupapa

I work across three integrated practices - philosophical research, creative work, and educational support - all asking the same questions:

  • How do we make visible what systems try to erase?

  • How do we replace deficit narratives with aspirational language?

  • How do we honor whole people, not just outcomes?

Everything I do is rooted in lived experience: reconnecting to te ao Māori after not being raised in it, navigating spaces where I’m both too much and not enough, and learning that transformation happens in the in-between places.
