Kia Ora Koutou, my name is Katerina Kupenga. I grew up in Turanga-nui-a-Kiwa (Gisborne) and currently live in Tamaki-nui-a-Rua (Danniverke). I have worked in the banking sector for over 10 years and am certified as a workplace and business coach. I also received training as a facilitator from the Institute of Cultural Affairs (Australasia). Recently, I was involved in managing leadership and strategic planning programs for school principals all over Aotearoa. Now, I am an independent Māori facilitator, focused on supporting growth, unity, and positive changes for Te Ao Māori and the people of Aotearoa.
