Experience

Heidi has extensive knowledge of not-for profit, kaupapa māori organisations as well as Government Departments. Heidi has begun her own Rangahau journey for her marae Takipu in Te Karaka North of Gisborne. She is based at the Waiwhero Campus but you never know where she may appear within Te Wānanga o Aotearoa. Always open to kōrero about your own Rangahau journeys and learning alongside our kaimahi.
