CURRENT MISSION

Run my belly off

ABOUT ME

I was born in England, moved to New Zealand in 1997 and have grown up a Kiwi. I love running, friends, good food, sunshine, smiles and learning! I am currently at the University of Otago, having a great time.

PHILOSOPHY

Joe Strummer once said, "without people, you're nothing." THIS IS TRUE.

There is a traditional Maaori saying in New Zealand: "He Tangata, He Tangata, He Tangata." This means "It is people." I believe that people are the most important thing in the world.
