Papermaker, The Papermill — August 2023 to present .

I am 24 years old and I live in Whangārei. My favourite colour is pink, I love cats, and my

favourite TV show is Heartland. Cooking is one of my biggest interests—I enjoy cooking

dinners and creating good meals. 

I love horse riding, I care about people and I value my friendships, including my friendship with Emma. I am happiest at church, and Lydon makes me laugh. I would like people to know that I like the hot pools, and if I could have a superpower, I would choose to have a magical wand. I am proud to be myself. 

The people, activities and interests in my life help make me who I am. I enjoy sharing what I love with others and spending time with people who understand me. I have my own strengths, my own sense of humour and my own way of seeing the world. I keep learning about myself through work, friendship and everyday experiences. I want people to notice my abilities, listen to what matters to me and enjoy getting to know the real me. I am proud to be me. 

My story matters. I enjoy sharing my interests.
