| If you could be an animal, what would you be, and why? |
I'd love to be a giant bird that can fly, that would be so awesome,

| What's the best thing about working on WN, including any special memories: |
I was almost about to grow up and be an old falla, but then I got the job on What
Now and its so sweet cause now I can keep being a kid! I'll never have to grow up hahahaha hehehehehehehe LOL LOL LOL LOL! My special memory was when they busted in on me at home and surprised me saying that I had got the job for What Now Spyrider! It was one of the best memories in my life!
|
| What did you want to be when you grew up? |
I wanted to be magic! I wished and prayed so hard that I could have special powers so that I could stop people from being sad and save the people that were in trouble and send food to poor people, so I used to hire out all the books from the library on how to be a magician, I learnt some real cool magic tricks, and maybe I used my magic powers to get the job on What now?

| Do you have a big/small family? |
I've got quite a big whanau, there's Papa, Mama, Me, Whakaangi, Eruera, Te Waiwera, Iritana, Hine Pounamu - That makes 8 of us, we didn't have much money but we had heaps of aroha!
|
| What's been the scariest moment on WN? |
Haha man it was so freaky when we were at the rodeo in Methven, I got a job being the clown, I didn't realise that the clown actually has to stop the bull from hurting people, and when that massive bulky bull came charging at me full speed I was so scared I thought it was gonna waste me, then I did my rugby step and dodged it and jumped over the fence where I was safe.

| What is the best thing about each of the other presenters? |
Serena is very nice, she sometimes makes me food to eat and its so tasty (mmmmm i'm hungry again) and Charlie makes me laugh all the time, he's always positive and happy
|
| ...And what are some bad habits of the others? |
Well, Serena actually always plays with her hair, twirling it in between her fingers then when you try to talk to her she's dreaming as if she's in another world, and Charlie is always hungry and asking Serena and I for snacks, "got any snacks?"
