I was born in Auckland in 1992 to my parents, Robin and Adele. I want to take this opportunity to thank them for how I was raised. Nearly all parents want their child to succeed, but what success means is different for every family. I always knew that no status, level, or wealth, or career I would choose to pursue would earn my parents' respect. Only my character could do that. My parents showed me the value of honesty, integrity, hard work, and responsibility. I learnt that there is strength in humility. As the youngest of four and the only girl, I'm sure my brothers will seek to keep me humble.
