Career Highlights

Mirabai made her on screen debut as a child on crime-series Harry in 2013. Following this, she went on to appear in a number of roles before attending The Actors Program in 2018 and has gone from role to role ever since. Mirabai has been recurring cast in classic New Zealand shows like high school rugby drama Head High, true crime series Black Hands, the Netflix show The Gulf, and the Sione’s Wedding prequel, Duckrockers. She made her cinema debut playing Teresa in the Warner Bros horror film, Evil Dead Rise. At the moment you can find her playing the sassy Lena Branston on The Brokenwood Mysteries season 10, or the sweet Nurse Shelby in A Remarkable Place To Die, or as the new nurse on the block on Shortland Street, with a film on the way for a 2025 release.
