Ko Deirdre Taurerewa (Missy Lu) taku ingoa.
Both my parents’ whakapapa to the awa. I reside in Jerusalem and enjoy spending my time at the marae & convent with the sisters of compassion. I currently sit on a few trusts as well as our marae Patiarero, this also keeps me busy and enhances my ties to the awa.
I enjoy living next to my moko & watching them grow, being part of their lives is so important.
I have been part of Te Puke Karanga Hauora governance team for the past 3 years and have thoroughly enjoyed the learning & experience of working as a team player. I learn something new at every hui which is fruit for my kete.
