With a background in academia and the visual arts and a concrete grounding in creative practice and event delivery my work spans research, advocacy, culture and heritage preservation, community development, event production, place development through temporary arts, community participation and co-creation with a focus on building sector resilience in the contemporary and performing arts.
I am the lead researcher for Stable Spaces, an initiative funded by Manatū Taonga to develop resources for space ownership in the arts. I was the director of the Urban Walking Festival from 2019 to 2022, guided the digital strategy for the Going West Festival and works as the Whau Community Arts Broker between 2014 and 2021
