Yesterday I was appointed Dean of AUT School of Law - first Maori Dean of any law school. Nga mihi to everyone who has msgd, tweeted, dm'ed, sent smoke signals - aroha mutunga kore. If you can see it, you can be it! Lesshgo 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽

The Black Caps kit looks like the gear manager left half the strip on the bus. Why are the pants black? 🤢🤢🤢

2/2 Big mihi to @formerlydaniels and Scotty for their pukapuka and Quintin Hita for his Maori in a Minute videos....from a grateful proud mama❤️

Noone in our whanau has been a reo speaker for 3 generations. My boy just got back his Level 3 NCEA Maori exam - he got the maximum marks... no kohanga, no kura; mainstream and largely self-taught... 1/2😭😭❤️❤️

Orca in Hokianga - approaching an unsuspecting snorkeler! Just another day in the Hoki ❤️

Just made dip with pre-chilled reduced cream from the fridge. No waiting 30 mins, can eat straight away. Feel like I've cracked the Da Vinci code. Waiting for my Nobel Science prize 2021....

World's laziest bring a plate dish - Mallowpuff Xmas puds... 🎄🎅❤️

Delayed gratification - away from home for work till tonight - just opened my @SecretSantaNZ presents - absolutely nailed it Hanakoko 🎅 ❤️👌🏽. So thoughtful - Star Wars, puzzles, chocs, kitties, te reo! nga mihi tinonui!

My Secret Santa has arrived! Feel like a three year old trying to figure out how to get into it before the 16th! @SecretSantaNZ

How tired am I? I'm "halfway home in a taxi when I remembered I left a checked in bag at the airport tired" 😂😂🚖🚖✈️✈️ #turnaroundpleasedriver

👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

Buying Maori-made gifts for Kirihimete. Think I'm the only wahine Maori in Aotearoa not making raukura earrings out of bike tyres 😂😂🚲🚲

Pop culture, star wars, crafter, makeup freak, Maori-made, food lover, traveller, sports fan, news junkie and I have new kitties! #SecretSantaNZ2020

Coulda shortened your headline to "Anti-Maori" nzherald.co.nz/northern-advo…
