Girls' Brigade has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember - this is my 19th year being involved, and I've been at 6th Auckland since beginning! Girls' Brigade has played such a vital role in my life, teaching me leadership skills, building my faith, giving me lifelong friendships, and it has given me so many unique and amazing experiences.

I have a passion for seeing youth develop their potential and grow into who God is shaping them to be. As National Youth Rep, I am hoping to create more opportunities for girls to do this, and to connect with each other on their journeys. With Nicola, I'm excited to continue building on the work of previous years to continue growing our youth and their connections together.

When I am not doing GB, I work as a primary school teacher in a year 5-6 classroom, where I love teaching tamariki to learn. I also love reading and boardgames, so whenever I have a moment of down time, my nose is in a book or I'm coercing friends or family into playing games.
