Qiane Matata-Sipu
Founder, Director, QIANE+co, NUKU
I live in Auckland, NZ and was born and raised in the coolest multi-cultural, village-metropolis of Māngere. For 11 years I have worked across media, photography and communications. I'm pretty damn good at it, too.
I write, from magazine features, to copy and profiles for businesses and organisations. And, I am a photographer. I work with phenomenal brands, amazing couples and families, wonderful organisations and, leading publications. I do it all with an honest documentary and storytelling style to my craft.I’m a wife, a māma, an artist and, a passionate social activist. My life experiences have given me a special set of diverse skills, making me perfect for almost any project you are working on.
For me, I’m all about the people. People are wonderful, intriguing, crazy and unique and, have the coolest stories. People can change the world, and that excites me.
Naturally inquisitive, and a sucker for good conversation over great food, I love to meet, write about and, photograph people and the things they live for.
