COLLINS
Introducing Fiona Collins, your Intimacy Director Coordinator, proudly based in Rotorua, Aotearoa.
A native of New Zealand and of Samoan descent, Fiona brings three decades of rich experience encompassing roles as a performer, writer, director, and choreographer, gracing theater stages and screens on a national and international scale.
Her unwavering dedication to the Arts Industry, with a special focus on Pasifika Arts, has been the driving force behind her artistic journey, leading her to the realm of intimacy direction and coordination.
Fiona is happily married to Asolelei Toalepai, a proud mother of two remarkable children, and she cherishes the role of the luckiest Nan in the world, with three beautiful grandchildren in her life.
“I was trying to think of something profound or clever to say ..but just simply, I guess remember to breathe in those moments of extreme challenge or celebration, as Pasifika women we have sooooo many! Remember how loved and exquisite we are. Remember that we have to create our own work in order for our voices to be heard as we pitch them, and tell our own stories our way so that there is no room for misunderstanding or confusion. Remember to be
thankful for both all the goodness and ick that made us who we are. We are a special breed of beauty...”
