I am queer, neurodivergent, multiply disabled secondary teacher and diversity advocate residing on Ngaati Wairere whenua. While on sabbatical to work towards my Master's in Disability and Inclusion Studies, I also worked with rainbow rangatahi in the community as the Waikato Regional Coordinator at InsideOUT and successfully co-organised the Waikato Rainbow Student Waananga in 2024. This year I'm doing what I can to stay afloat and stay connected to my hapori whilst still studying part-time and teaching full-time.
