Re-claiming by re-telling

Sharing our stories is an important part of healing and giving back. I was humbled when asked to join the Te Maatanga Doctoral Network for Waikato-Tainui College for Research & Development. My doctoral journey was not the easiest but neither was my journey to get there. Without the love, encouragement and support of whānau, friends and inspiring mentors and leaders I would not have even considered a PhD – I didnt even know what the was!

Enjoy my short kōrero.
