Overview

Malo e lelei, I am of Tongan descent and I have recently migrated over from New Zealand. I’ve been working as a registered social worker for many years & I have experience in the child protection and youth justice space where I predominantly worked with teenagers in navigating their path & supporting parents support their teens. I volunteered for many years in the community & it has allowed me to meet people from all walks of life and backgrounds.
