What I cover: I cover a range of issues with a special interest in court, crime and social issues. I aim to give people a voice and tell stories that matter to Aotearoa. People can get in touch with me with any stories they feel are important to get out there.
My background: I have worked as a journalist since 2018. I began my career as a breaking news reporter at Stuff and since then have covered a range of different rounds including breaking news, court, LGBTQIA+ issues and general reporting. I began as a senior journalist at RNZ in 2024.
