Ko Aoraki te maunga

Nō Te Tihi ō Maru ahau

Ko Hakatere te whenua tupu

Kei Ōtautahi au e noho ana

Ko Emma tōku ingoa

Kia ora,

My name is Emma and I was born and raised in Waitaha, with Ōtautahi being home.  I'm a out and proud member of the Rainbow community and have a strong passion for social justice, equity, and human rights for everyone.

My current role is People Lead & Lead Health Navigator.  This involves direct leadership for some of the team, providing training and supporting quality improvements, co-facilitating workshops, and having a caseload.  

I began my social services career in the late 90s and have experience in supporting children, youth and adults, alongside roles within the rainbow community, leadership, training & education, and community health.

I value leading with empathy, and am passionate about supporting the development of others and highlighting/building on individual strengths.
