Why Kaha?

Kaha (from the Māori Dictionary)
1. (verb) to be strong, able, capable, courageous, intense, energetic.

I chose the name Kaha because of my love for and connection with New Zealand. It is where my husband and I traveled and lived in 2010, had the trip of a lifetime and got engaged.

I want to help lots of businesses grow. I've witnessed great success for business growth using the areas of expertise I offer, and I wanted to share my inbound marketing and business development experience beyond a single employer. Besides traditional networking and word-of-mouth referrals, I believe that having an effective digital strategy and presence is critical to your business' success. Through Kaha, I get the opportunity to help a diversity of clients develop their own, unique digital inbound marketing strategies. How lucky am I?

Why Inbound Marketing?

The inbound methodology resonates strongly with me because it’s based on what I've always believed is the best way to make any business successful: focus on the customer and their needs and communicate with them in an honest and authentic way.
