Your interest in TAaR:
My whanau has always been involved with Te Ahurei a Rangatahi and through that, I have been able to see the organization have a positive impact on the lives of rangatahi. I always knew that I would want to be involved in this mahi.
Experience at TAaR/Rangatahi:
Started at Te Ahurei a Rangatahi in 2021 upon returning home from the United Kingdom. I worked as a Youth Mentor and then would help out with different Kaupapa within the organization. I moved to Australia later that year for sporting commitments. Then at the end of 2022, I returned home and now work as a Program Coordinator looking after our Tuu Maia and Tuu Tewhatewha Tuu programmes, alongside studies.
