Juanita Parata
Juanita Parata is a determined Māori woman and mother of eight who graduated with a degree in medical imaging from Unitec in New Zealand, achieving this milestone while undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Inspired by her sisters who are nurses, Parata began her studies at the age of 50. Her journey through cancer, including a full mastectomy and chemotherapy, did not deter her from pursuing her academic goals. She completed her degree while receiving treatment and has since started working at Whangārei Hospital, aiming to increase the representation of Māori practitioners in the medical field. Parata's story serves as an inspiration to many, particularly within the Māori community.
