Tyrone embraces his cultural background strongly and is determined to continue to bring his heritage and diversity to the forefront of the entertainment and arts industry both on and off screen. Naturally he draws inspiration from New Zealand icons Taika Waititi, Sam Neill, Rena Owen, Karl Urban and Temuera Morrison to name a few. Like those before him, Tyrone aims to be a figure of inspiration to not only his generation of Maori and all New Zealanders, but the next generations to come.
