Kaihoahoa Whenua | Landscape Architect
Kaiaho | Graduate
I am organised, creative, multicultural and highly efficient. I'm capable of producing and delivering content with creative thinking, methodological approaches, artistic skills, the ability to work with others, and knowledge of various cultural backgrounds.
Living in New Zealand for over ten years has given me experience and knowledge that inspires me in so many ways. I am always open to new ideas and embrace new ways of working and thinking. I am passionate about the public life of cities and committed to making a difference by creating a vibrant and prosperous, resilient, inclusive and connected city to serve my community directly. For that reason, my fifth-year thesis was about ‘Define a hybrid term of street typology that supports a variety of different types of sustainable transport modes to improve the pedestrian accessibility between the neighbourhoods, cities, sub-regions and regions'.
I am interested in contributing to a more sustainable future for New Zealand’s built and natural environments. I also have a very good awareness of the Resource Management Act, the New Zealand building code, road design and the construction industry to work closely with other departments.
