"I’m currently furthering my studies with a BCS (Honours) year at AUT University. I have a passion for people and humanitarian work. I am of mixed descent (Samoan, Fijian and English) and I have been brought up surrounded by the values of the Baha’i faith and the Presbyterian religion.
"Having intertwining cultures and religions has always made me interested and eager to learn about other people’s cultures, ethnicities and the differences this brings to the world.
"It is also what fuels my passion for writing stories, which help voice minority concerns, promotes human welfare and Pacific success.
"I also enjoy photography, animation and anything outdoors."
