Lessi Riccio

Lessi Riccio is the Social Media Manager here at Te Herenga Waka. She joined the team at the beginning of the year to revamp our socials and develop the strategic direction for the team. Lessi was born in Melbourne and moved to New Zealand for a new adventure, working for Wellington City Council—where she launched their TikTok account. Her family are proudly Italian, and her Nonna's lasagna recipe is literally the best.
