Tēnā koutou katoa, I’m an Ōtūmoetai graduate with a long-standing connection to the school. My eldest son will finish in 2029, and my youngest will start year 9 around that time too.
I’ve worked in Human Resource Management within Tertiary Education for over 10 years and have more than 15 years of experience in community governance, including serving as President of a not-for-profit branch in Tauranga. I’m passionate about mental health and supporting our students and staff in creating a safe, inclusive school environment.
As one of your parent representatives, I look forward to the challenge.
