She co-curated the permanent exhibition Tāmaki Herenga Waka: Stories of Auckland, which opened in 2021, and is the lead curator for Mana: Protest in Print (Dec 2024–Oct 2026).Andrea holds a PhD in ethnomusicology from Waipapa Taumata Rau University of Auckland, tracing the transmission of Hawaiian music in the Jazz Age across the Pacific and Asia, and an MA in sculpture from Elam, where she also taught for many years. She has taught moving image in Spatial Design at Te Wānanga Aronui o Tāmaki Makau Rau Auckland University of Technology and is a regular contributor of articles and publications exploring the histories of Pacific peoples in Aotearoa and the wider Pacific. She is the editor of A Triad of Safe Keeping, on the work of artist Rowan Panther.Her research interests focus on the entanglements of history, colonialism, indigeneity, biography, and diaspora.
