The introduction is part of a Pasifika/Pacific education ongoing conversation. Like my colleagues, this intellectual space enables voice amongst other voices often sidelined even within the wider Pacific people category. My fronting of the question, "Ko e leo ke eke ha?" is intentional in me seeking to claim space for tagata Niue and make visible voices of empowerment. The descriptions I share of my journey in education is part of an ongoing tutala from a tagata Niue perspective, adding to the existing talatalanoa with my colleagues from other Aotearoa NZ Realm Nations.
