My Approach

Culturally-Grounded AI Implementation

Work with a partner who understands that AI implementation isn't just about technology - it's about people, culture, and values. My approach is relationship-first and culturally grounded, designed to create meaningful, lasting change for you, your team, and your community. Built on the WHĀKĀ-6 Framework™, I blend indigenous principles with modern innovation to create AI strategies that resonate deeply - whether you're a Pacific, Māori, or global entrepreneur.

What's in it for you?

  • Cultural Sensitivity - Your AI strategy respects your community, values, and market. No one-size-fits-all templates.

  • Global + local perspective - Insights from diverse industries and cultures, designed to help you thrive locally and globally.
