The 25-year-old won the senior woolhandling final in Masterton last week.
She successfully defended the title she won last year, after winning the junior title a year earlier.
Toa Henderson, of Northland, defended his Golden Shears open shearing title, and Joel Henare, of Gisborne, won a 12th Golden Shears open woolhandling title.
Jack Fagan, of Te Kuiti, won the National Shearing Circuit final.
Nathan Stratford, of Invercargill, was a major threat and led the chase in the shearing circuit final.
Fagan finished in 17min 15.213sec, a time advantage of almost four points, which Stratford pegged back with the better quality.
However, Fagan won by 1.378 points, to secure a place in the 2026-27 New Zealand transtasman shearing and woolhandling series team.
