I completed my Bachelor's degree in Anthropology and Māori Studies, working on the side for a Māori consultancy business and an event managing company.

Why TVNZ?

No day is the same.. Just walking through the building has its perks Good Morning and Breakfast often put some of the guest acts in the atrium, or you see the odd famous person here and there. Special seminars or guest speakers get brought in to talk to staff. Filming takes place anywhere and everywhere.
