I’m a registered community psychologist working in Northland, with a special interest in community wellbeing, social research and evaluation. I’ve been involved in applied research and evaluation for over 25 years – with communities, and in local and central government.
I like to work collaboratively, where everyone’s knowledge and experience is respected. I’m Pakeha, of Irish descent, and committed to taking a partnership approach. I value the opportunity to work with Maori practitioners and organisations, and appreciate the guidance and support I have been given over the years.
