Kiaora and Welcome
Toikipa is a platform to showcase my creative and industrial endeavors.
It is my focus to create original mass produced products in 3D or 2D.
I use my heritage, formal training and upbringing to influence my work.
I am based in Auckland, New Zealand. I am NZ Maori and have tribal affiliations to Tainui, Te Arawa and Nga Puhi.
My interests are comics, toys, whakairo, hip hop and rugby league.
Currently working as an in-house Product Designer since 2004.
Education: Bachelor of Arts in 3D Design.
