She is a member of the Community Economies Collective (www.communityeconomies.org) and conducts ethnographic research on everyday practices for social change in Australia, China, and New Zealand, particularly with mothers. She is a Pākēha New Zealander committed to a bicultural future Aotearoa New Zealand where the reo, tikanga, and kaupapa of the tangata whenua is used, honoured, and normalised.

Notes
1. ‘Māuipreneurs’ is term coined by Terongonui Josie Keelan, reinterpreting the mischievous behaviour of legendary demigod Māui as ‘entrepreneurial’ and as a model for young Māori entrepreneurs.
2. Pākehā refers to New Zealanders of European descent.
3. This whakatauki or proverb was chosen by the Ngāi Tahu tribe of the South Island of Aotearoa New Zealand to describe their approach to investing their treaty settlement monies.
