Biography

Talofa lava! I am a proud Timaru-born kiwi, with links back to Southern England through my Mum, and Western Samoa through my Dad. I started my career in private practice, but made the move over to the public sector in 2018. I enjoy working in my local community hospital in Porirua as a physio and in a management role. Outside of the hospital I have recently completed my MBA studies, and I currently Chair the Pasifika Physiotherapy Association.
