I am a researcher, teacher and practitioner in the area of public policy in New Zealand and policy law transfer and localisation processes in developing nations. My previous work focused on social entrepreneurship and innovation in the area of development policy in the Democratic Republic of Congo and program monitoring and evaluation in Rwanda, Uganda and Tanzania with World Vision. I am also continuing work on two research projects in Samoa; one focusing on the role of social entrepreneurs in Samoan society and a second on the policy responses to criminal deportees and their lived experiences in the process of immigration through deportation and re-assimilation and the role of innovative civil society organisations in this process. My objective is to continue to make a positive impact in public policy, development practice and policy in both the public or private sector.
