MAHI
Our WORK

Working alongside my clients, I help shine a light on positive, initiatives creating systemic, long-term, transformational change for people and and our planet.

To meet the needs of diverse groups and those that need a greater voice for positive change, together we can empower community groups and for-purpose organisations to communicate messages with key target audiences effectively and efficiently.

Through the delivery of bespoke and individualised solutions through cutting-edge design, I aspire to provide beautiful, efficient and effective marketing and communications content.

I support kaupapa Māori values and Māori-led projects to enable Māori initiatives to connect with whānau and key stakeholders, for thriving and healthy communities. I believe that here in Aotearoa New Zealand, what is good for Māori is good for us all and I tautoko the tāngata whenua of this unique and beautiful land.

Key to my mahi and all my work, is establishing authentic relationships and enabling whakawhanaungatanga, to develop meaningful connections and collaborations to reach solutions.

Because the wellbeing of our communities are intertwined and dependent on the health of te taiao, our environment, Creative Good prioritises environmental causes through communications and advocacy, informing people of what they can do to take action and make a difference for papatuanuku, our mother earth, so that together we can ensure a healthy, sustainable future for us all.

Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou,
nau mai haere mai.

Raukūmara Pae Maunga

Raukūmara Pae Maunga.png

Foundational communications work for Raukūmara Pae Maunga, a Māori-led project for biodiversity restoration on the East Cape being driven by the iwi Te Whānau a Apanui and Ngāti Porou, has helped to raise awareness of the project, build relationships with stakeholders, and ensure that the project's story is told in a way that upholds the mana of all involved.

 

Delivery included the communications strategy to reach key target audiences, brand identity guidelines to ensure consistent use of the project's logo, colours, fonts, style of copy, use of imagery and content creation, and a new website. The social media plan, content and ongoing social media management was delivered, pānui (newsletters) were written and stories of impact were shared to highlight the progress and impact on the environment, the community, and the iwi.

Poutiria te Aroha offers parenting programmes that resonate with whānau Māori. The programmes offered by Poutiria te Aroha draw on Māori cultural values and tikanga for raising tamariki, along with the traditions of nonviolence, evident in the philosophy of peaceful resistance in Aotearoa (eg Parihaka) and overseas.

For this website we incorporated key elements such as pou designs, and the font and colour palette of Poutiria te Aroha, to produce a unified and connected feel, that would resonate with whānau Māori. A video that shines a light on the positive impacts being created through these programmes was also created.

Kiwis Against Seabed Mining (KASM) increases awareness of seabed mining proposals across Aotearoa and aims to stop future mining. Seabed mining uses machines to extract elements deep within the seabed, scraping the sea floor and damaging marine life.
 

We designed this website for KASM to help protect, advocate for and preserve our moana and all the lifeforce that lives within and on our seabeds. A key focus for the website was to enable people to take action via signing petitions, joining social media communities, registering for e-news and supporting through donations and merchandise purchases.
