- Taemaro is my Marae and tūrangawaewae, my place of standing. It is a beautiful bay in Northland, Ngāti Kahu. It holds a very special place in my heart.
- My family are my number one. With my amazing husband, we have three incredible children. Each have worn these Jordan booties.
- Ko au ko te whenua, ko te whenua ko au – I am the land and the land is me. This kākahu represents my Māori heritage.
- Music is a piece of art that goes into the ears straight to the heart. Even better when it’s live music.
- Sands from Taemaro (Northland) and Atiu (Cook Islands) mixed at our wedding to represent the coming together of our cultures.
