Jamie Pye is an electrical engineering graduate from Te Whare Wānanga o Tāmaki Makaurau and now an Infrastructure Project Manger. Attending kohanga reo and now on a journey of reclaiming her reo māori is just one of the reasons her insight on incorporating te ao māori and engineering is invaluable. 

She speaks on what it will mean for more māori to be within engineering, importance of support for tauira māori through kaupapa like SPIES and what is means to "find the discomfort" when incorporating te ao māori into the workplace. 

Very lucky to have Jamie on the podcast. Enjoy e te iwi!

Kia ora tātou! This episode we have Teresa Poli. This wahine toa is a recent environmental engineer graduate from Te Whare Wānanga o Waikato and went into the construction side of the industry straight from university. Teresa completed her Honours project on the māori perspective on roads and is now completing her Masters on the same kaupapa!

Kia ora e te whānau!

This episode we have John Blyth sharing kōrero with us. He is a geologist by training and speaks on his role as Māori Business Advisor with Beca. I met John last year through both of our journeys of learning te reo Māori at Te Wānanga o Aotearoa. He holds a particularly interesting perspective on how to get māori in to engineering especially from a business advisory perspective.

Kia ora rā tatou.   

This the second part of the two part interview with Troy Brockbank. In this second part series, he delves in to things such as Pākehā paralysis, being a māori "tickbox-er" and the power in empowering māori engineers to be māori and so so much more. I hope you enjoy it this kōrero as much as I did.
