Islay joined RMM Landscape Architects in October 2024, bringing a fresh perspective and a passion for whanaungatanga, creativity, and team success.

With a Diploma in Business - Leadership and Management, Islay combines her strong organisational skills and leadership training with a background in operations and experience working within a kaupapa Māori. She is committed to embracing Te ao Māori and integrating cultural values into all aspects of her mahi.

Known for her conscientious work ethic, commitment to teamwork, and eagerness to learn, Islay supports the team while fostering a positive and dynamic work environment at RMM. She thrives on building meaningful connections and contributing to innovative and sustainable landscape projects.

Outside of mahi, Islay enjoys spending quality time with friends and whānau, exploring the outdoors, and seeking new experiences. She enjoys going on walks with her dog, Cinny, reading, and unwinding with a good Netflix series. Well-being is also a priority, with regular gym sessions and yoga where possible.

Islay is excited to be part of the RMM whānau and looks forward to contributing her skills, energy, and passion to the team, while deepening her understanding of landscape architecture and embracing the opportunity to grow in this creative field with a strong connection to whenua.
