Kaiwhakarite Whakamaru Taiao | Biosecurity Project Co-ordinator
Business Services
Whakatū | Nelson OFFICE
With 10 years’ experience working in environmental organisations, I have strong skills in project coordination, stakeholder and data management, compliance, and health and safety.
Supporting consultants in delivering project outcomes, I maintain internal systems and assist them with managing project timelines and budgets, and preparing reports. I also coordinate many of the operational and administrative components that sit behind our large biosecurity programmes across aquatic, terrestrial and marine environments.
Alongside my role, I am studying part-time towards a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science, which I plan to complete in 2029. Inspired by environmental science and Te Ao Māori perspectives, I value the interconnected relationship we share with our natural environment. I am passionate about kaitiakitanga, biodiversity restoration, and protecting Aotearoa’s natural spaces so they can be enjoyed by our children and future generations.
In my spare time, I enjoy adventuring outdoors, music and spending time with family and friends.
