I am the son of the late Bill and Te Raupo Brown and the second youngest of 12 children.

I went to Te Hapua Maori School then Te Kao Area School.

I have lived 90% of my life in Te Hapua so my passions and desires are for Ngati Kuri.

I am a Minister of the Ratana Faith.

My Vision is to get the whenua back and to get employment and sustainability for the Ngāti Kuri people.
