ABOUT

I te taha o tõku Pāpā ko Rongowhakaata, Ngāti Kahungunu ngā iwi
I te taha o tõku Māmā ko Ngāpuhi, Ngāi Tai ngā iwi.
Kei te noho au ki Perth.

Born and raised in Rotorua with iwi(tribal)ties up North + along the East Coast of Aotearoa(New Zealand). Natasha has been raised in Aotearoa(New Zealand)however moved to Australia in 2020 where she currently resides in Perth, Western Australia. Natasha has a background in business with a love for kai(food)+ writing.

A contestant on the New Zealand television series My Kitchen Rules in 2017, author of Beautiful Ashes released April 2019 + Creative Director of the The M
āori Foodie 2019.

"I take pictures of food more than anything else + I just LOVE kai
(food)! Th
e Māori Foodie became the outlet for that passion of mine. In 2019 I developed The Māori Foodie kai boxes which included locally sourced kai(food) products while developing Reka Chocolates - Hāngi inspired chocolates. In future I'll pick up kai products again but for now I am focusing on writing & posting kai(food).
I enjoy writing content that seeks to inspire + uplift others which prompted me to write my first book
Beautiful Ashes.I've discovered that building community is my sweet spot. It exists between kai (food), business + writing. It's within these pou (posts)that I thrive. What motivates me is passion but my why is people.
​The whisper before the roar".
