Kia ora, I am honored to serve as the General Manager at SafeMan SafeFamily. In this role, I am dedicated to empowering our QBE (Qualified by Experience) kaimahi, clinical kaimahi, and the entire organisation as we walk alongside Tane and their whānau on their journey to break free from the cycle of violence.
 
With over 15 years of experience in the mental health, addictions, and family violence sectors, I have been privileged to hold various clinical, supervisory, and leadership positions within both kaupapa Māori and mainstream social and health services. My journey has equipped me with the skills and passion to lead our team with empathy and strength, ensuring we create safe and nurturing environments for all tane, wahine and tamariki in our communities across Aotearoa.

Together, we are committed to fostering a future where every whānau can thrive in safety and harmony.
