Shelley Hoani

With over two decades of experience in tertiary education within a Wānanga context, Dr Shelley Hoani has gained considerable experience in various aspects of Ako (teaching, learning), Aro (reflective practice), and Rangahau (Māori/Indigenous inquiry). Notably, Shelley has served as the lead for Publications and Ethics, acquiring extensive knowledge and experience in both of these areas. 

Shelley's interests encompass a wide range of personal, professional, and scholarly kaupapa, including wāhine Māori leadership, Indigenous frameworks of being, notions of success, the social construction of identity (single-parent), Kaitiakitanga (bicultural professional supervision), and even K-pop fan origin stories. Throughout these diverse areas of interest, the common thread is Shelley's commitment to amplifying and valuing the voices and lived experiences of wāhine/women.
