I am keenly interested in advocating and agitating for disabled people. I work as an employment consultant specifically supporting disabled people into employment.

Due to MS, I have become progressively more disabled over the past 20 years, and my experiences as both an able-bodied and disabled person drives me to want full equity for disabled people in Aotearoa. I am divorced with a 13-year-old son, and I enjoy anything technical (yes, I am a nerd!). I have lived in many different countries around the World but love Aotearoa/New Zealand as I can trace my whakapapa back to 1820 Motupōhue (Bluff), Ōtākou and Rakiura. I enjoy networking with people around NZ who have some association with disability.
