Whitney Esi Pa’u-Tuitasi

Kia ora, Talofa lava, Malo e lelei.

Ko Whitney Pa’u-Tuitasi tōku ingoa. I am the Campaign and Events Lead at Hāpai Te Hauora.

With a background in film, events and fashion, my journey with Hāpai began in 2022 as a Smokefree Community Activator in Tāmaki Makaurau. Over the past three years, I’ve worked across Aotearoa, contracting in film and events while moving between Wellington and Auckland, before returning to Hāpai in my current role.

I’m passionate about working behind the scenes to coordinate meaningful campaigns and major events that support Māori and Pasifika communities and uplift those on the frontline. Being part of a strong team and helping bring impactful kaupapa to life is at the heart of what I do.
