I have been the Marae Delegate and Trustee to Te Runanga o Te Rarawa for over 18 yrs. I have been extensively involved with the Runanga advocating on behalf of my Hapu o Ngati Haua.
I have worked towards Ngati Haua Wai 696 claim lodged and taken before the crown by Te Rarawa.
I am dedicated to representing my Hapu on various issues that impact on us. I regularly communicate with my Whanau and Hapu regarding the affairs of the Runanga and also contribute towards addressing issues that impact on my Hapu.
I am an active kai mahi on the Marae from ringa wera to kai korero. I prepare reports and presentations for Ngati Haua and have also worked on providing submissions on behalf of Whanau and the Hapu.
I consider my experience over these years to help qualify myself towards continuing to be an effective representative for Te Kotahitanga Marae and Te Hapu o Ngati Haua.
