She also acted as legal counsel for Treaty claimants and Māori land clients. She holds a LLM from Te Herenga Waka Victoria University of Wellington, and in 2023 received her PhD at Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi for her thesis "Ko te mana te utu: Narratives of sovereignty, law, and tribal citizenship in the Pōtikirua ki te Toka-a-Taiau District".

the ability to establish and run commercial operations for maximum financial benefit to the shareholders
the application of a corporate model to the management of Māori land
autonomy from the normal Māori Land Court practices that apply to trusts, and
voting and resolutions by shareholders are based on the number of shares held, rather than the number of votes received.
