My teaching career began in 1992 in a bilingual class, and carried on to teaching in r奴maki units, k艒hanga reo, kura and wharekura. My tertiary teaching career began at Victoria University where I spent eight years mainly focusing on maths education and education for 惭腻辞谤颈. I moved to 萝莉社 University after spending six and a half years lecturing in teacher education at Te Whare W膩nanga o Awanui膩rangi, some masters classes, and some adult numeracy and te reo 惭腻辞谤颈 teaching for bridging-to-nursing students. My main focus at Te Whare W膩nanga o Awanui膩rangi was teaching P膩ngarau/maths and integration of curriculum area teaching and learning that centralises kaupapa and m膩tauranga 惭腻辞谤颈.  
My PhD explored the relationships that kura communities have with mathematics education with a view to ensuring that kura have emancipated decision-making power to determine how kaupapa and m膩tauranga 惭腻辞谤颈 are equitably privileged with kaupapa and m膩tauranga mathematics.

Ko Hikurangi te Maunga, Ko Waiapu te Awa, Ko Ng膩ti Porou te Iwi, Ko te Wh膩nau a P艒kai te Hap奴, Ko Te Kapa o Hinek艒peka te T奴rangawaewae, Ko P艒kai te Marae, Ko P艒hatu te Wharekai. T膿n膩 koutou, t膿n膩 koutou, t膿n膩 r膩 t膩tou katoa.

My main accomplishments to-date are my five children and (so far) eight mokopuna.

I am a senior lecturer/researcher in education with a main focus on mathematics education in relation to kaupapa and m膩tauranga 惭腻辞谤颈 in kura.
