About Me
Raised on the beautiful Kāpiti Coast, my interest in video and imagery began back when I created my first social media accounts. That passion followed me through clothing businesses I’ve owned, and now I’m lucky to do this as a job, creating content for businesses and events around NZ.
MY FAMILY
I’m incredibly grateful to share my life with my amazing husband, Chris. He’s the solid foundation of our little family, always there to support and hold us together. Together, we’re raising two wonderful kids: Jaiya, our cheeky 5 year old boy, and Ari, our playful 2 year old girl. They bring so much joy, laughter, and adventure to our lives every day!

Ever With You – A Dream Turned Reality
After the birth of my first child, I took a leap of faith and launched Ever With You, an online women’s clothing boutique I had always dreamed of. At 25, I dove into every detail—researching, emailing, and planning on my own. Looking back, I’m proud of what I accomplished at such a young age.
Running the boutique was an exciting adventure. I created all the content myself, which sparked my passion for content creation. I quickly discovered a natural talent for it and fell in love with the creative process behind every post and campaign.
After two years, balancing two young children, a full-time flight attendant job, and managing a business became unsustainable. In 2022, I made the difficult decision to close Ever With You. Though bittersweet, I left with valuable lessons, cherished memories, and a deep sense of accomplishment.
Now, I see how Ever With You shaped my path and prepared me for my next chapter in content creation. The skills and experiences I gained continue to fuel my creative work today.
Nola was an online store born from a shared passion for fashion between my friend Rachel and me. Together, we designed the clothing, selected fabrics, and brought our vision to life—Rachel hand-sewed the pieces, while I handled all the content creation and photoshoots for the brand.
We poured our hearts into Nola and absolutely loved every moment of it. However, as we both began starting our own families, it became clear that managing the business was becoming too much to handle. With Rachel moving to another island, it became increasingly difficult to keep up.
Though we eventually had to close the store, we cherished the experience and the lessons we learned along the way. Nola was a beautiful chapter in our lives that allowed us to grow both personally and professionally.
MY JOURNEY IN
CUSTOMER SERVICE
With years of experience in the customer service industry, I most recently spent seven incredible years as a Flight Attendant for Air New Zealand. A role that not only allowed me to travel and experience our amazing nation but also provided countless opportunities for personal and professional growth. During my time with Air New Zealand, I faced challenges, overcame obstacles, and celebrated moments of pure satisfaction in helping people. As a proud brand ambassador, I represented the airline with pride across the country, delivering world-class service and embodying the values of one of the best airlines in the world. I learned how to lead a cabin of 68+ passengers with confidence, handle medical emergencies, make critical announcements over the PA system, and ensure every passenger's safety and well-being-often in high-pressure situations.
While my time in the air was immensely rewarding, the decision to step away from my role was driven by my growing commitment to family life. With a young family at home,
the demands of being away during the week no longer aligned with my priorities. However, the skills I honed as a Flight Attendant, communication, problem-solving. adaptability, and leadership-are universal and have enriched every facet of my professional life. I'm deeply grateful for the experiences I've gained throughout my career, from managing customer needs to representing an incredible brand. These experiences have equipped me with a versatile skill set I'm eager to apply to new challenges. With a passion for creativity and having managed content in the past with my own businesses, I'm excited to launch my own content creation business in Käpiti, where I can bring fresh ideas to brands/businesses and help them get impactful, beautiful content that resonates with their audience.
Yours sincerely.
