The ocean is an
​integral part of my life.

I was fortunate to have been raised on a yacht my father built and spent my summers sailing and diving along the East Coast of New Zealand with my family. The range of wonderful experiences this life around the water has given me, has made me determined to share these experiences with the people around me, working to build an awareness and understanding around issues facing our ocean whilst igniting a sense of wonder with what lies below the surface.

Learning about our oceans
through Virtual Reality.

​I am currently working for BLAKE NZ as a Virtual Reality Environmental Educator, where I have taught over 30,000 students over the North Island. Through the NZ-VR programme, students experience several underwater virtual reality videos that compare and contrast pristine and degraded marine environments. Through these experiences, I teach students what causes these changes in the ocean and what actions they can take to protect our marine environment.
