Eboni Waitere
Ngāti Kahungunu, Rangitāne
Eboni came to HUIA hoping to create books in which her tamariki can see themselves reflected in the illustrations and stories. She is proud of the authors HUIA has supported and the positive contributions we have collectively made to the literary landscape of Aotearoa. Eboni loves contributing to Māori success and high performance, and she enjoys trading on the stock market – investment clubs are a hobby of hers. She’s also highly competitive; she and her whānau are a force to be reckoned with on the basketball court!
