I have lived in Bell Block and Waitara most of my life, I am married with two sons. I am a current board member of the TDHB for the past three years as a ministerial supplied appointment.
I have found the governance a challenge and would like to continue as a full board member and seek your support. Health is a major area where limited resources are shared by the whole community now require Maori input and Maori outputs to enhance and complement resources available to the whole community that can improve Maori Health as a major outcome and reduce costs of our health system.
Information communication: Development of Community Governance and management, strategic planning, marketing, critical analysis managing the risks, measuring change.
