Hello! I’m Queenie I’m the Corporate Services Manager, the loud and hungry one who also brings the hype and culture to the team! lol.

How did I get involved with Radio 4EB? Well… I was contracted to deliver on funding targets and deliver on some projects which were successful. I am now part of the furniture, the team wont let me go!

These are the best pieces of advice been given to me: Always listen, Always learn, and be open.

My phone wallpaper has a picture of my darling nephews and nieces, and a home screen of my dad’s village / island Manono in Samoa.

I’ve had many highlights of the past year, and here are some: Working with 4EB and getting to know the media sector. Also, I did lots of producing in 2022, my background is in the arts and creative industries so I’ve been fortunate enough to be a part of lots of new work, productions and festivals as a Producer/Curator outside of 4EB. Travelling a lot interstate and oversea’s was a highlight especially after COVID, it was nice to spend a year of solid work on the ground then being able to travel again. On a personal note, I enjoyed spending much more time with family and being able to unplug from work has been good.

2023 is going to be a big year, an exciting one, but I can say I am excited to be taking on a much larger role with 4EB, taking on lots of new creative works as a producer, and travelling internationally quite a lot this year.

The activity that makes me lose all track of time is swimming or being near the ocean. I grew up in a bay area of Auckland in New Zealand. There is something about being near the ocean and water that is calming and rejuvenating.

‘Nope’ by Jordan Peele is the latest movie I watched – very interesting and out of it! And I’m still processing it.

My favourite sandwich DannyBoys!

I would like to have more time for reading and taking holidays where I dont have my laptop with me… My family would love that!

If you could see my Spotify list, Old and new jazz, soul, R&B, blues, afro, cultural music etc

One thing I couldn’t live without is my family. Family over everything.
