Nga mihi kia koutou katoe Te Whanui.

I work for Tennon Clearwood Limited in Taupo which currently has over 500 employees and accommodates for a lot of whanau in the Tuwharetoa takiwa.

As a board member for the Opawa Rangitoto 2C Inc. I have taken on the role as Deputy Chairman, my duties include:

•  Authorising transfers of leases alongside our Chair.

• Working with our professional services (e.g. Strettons, Le Pines and Morrison Kent).

• Liaison with Taupo District Council on matters relating to our village.

• Arranging quotes and management of contractors working in our environment.

• General management work around the village, including in a voluntary capacity.

• Liaison and maintaining a good relationship with our residents.

• Work with our Kaumatua.

• Marae bookings, Marae preparation and induction.

Over the years, I’ve developed my work ethic from my father, who was very meticulous about the presentation of our village.  I have that same passion.  I am the Committee member directly on site and because of this, I take enquiries and watch over our whenua.

I’m also a committee member of the Waitetoko Marae Committee.

To finish, I encourage our Rangatahi to learn the business of our Incorporation and to have purpose and values, after all, you are the future.
