Natasha Strange
Accounting & Office Manager
A love for figures and finding the balance made accounting a natural fit for Natasha, also known as Tash.
She had a natural love for solving challenges and banking ran in the family, but after a number of years with an accounting firm, she wanted to move into the commercial sector. She loved the building industry and worked in both financial accounting and property management for 10 years.
Before coming to Locus, Tash managed Rydal House for a few years, so it’s fitting that she’s working in it now.
Born and raised in Tauranga, Tash lives with her partner Kevin and their 5 college-age children. She enjoys life and has a positive “go get it” attitude. A fitness fan, she’s involved in a wide range of activities such as running, tennis, boating, and generally enjoying outdoor fun with her family.
As a part-time volunteer for Food Rescue, part of the Good Neighbour movement, she helps collect and redistribute food that would otherwise go to waste, to charities. She is also fond of school camps, school trips, and has enjoyed some coaching opportunities along the way.
