Tiana says she loves connecting with Pasifika communities in Aotearoa and getting to see how they practise and preserve their cultural heritage while living away from the homeland.

Tiana is passionate about Cook Islands dancing and loves performing and sharing her love for her culture with others. She has previously produced numerous short films for work and in her own time, most revolving around indigenous people and practices in the Cook Islands.
