About me
Ko Weraiti te maunga .Ko Waihou te awa. Ngāti Hinerangi te iwi. Ngāti Tawhaki te hapū. Tainui te waka.My involvement in the creative industries began as an actor, before I moved into roles as a filmmaker, producer, director, tour and stage manager and entrepreneur. What I enjoy most about working in this industry is the power storytelling has to transform lives.
My vision is to make films and television programs that have positive messages; that inspire and create meaningful discussion and promote social change in Aotearoa/NZ.
Based at West Auckland’s Muriwai Beach, whether I’m filming, touring or at home, I revel in my most challenging role of all - father to my 15 year-old daughter, Manawanui.
