Bridging Aotearoa and India through music, events and connection.

My story

Something was missing

I used to have it all on paper. A professional career, my own business, the white picket fence. And still, something was missing.

At 36, I sold up and flew to India on my own little Eat, Pray, Love adventure. I found the handpan, and everything else shifted.

Now I write songs from my life and my experiences. Along the way I've learned I'm a natural connector of people, places and possibilities. That's where my next chapter begins.

What I do

My goal

The bridge

Aotearoa × India

I want to bring these two worlds together, creating real opportunities for Indian artists and bands to tour New Zealand and be recognised for their talent.

As a New Zealand Māori, I feel a deep kinship between Māori and Indian culture, and I want to build bridges between them:

  • Whānau · parivaar
  • Manaakitanga · atithi devo bhava
  • Respect for elders
  • Song and story as history
