Why I'm standing
As a resident with family in this area, I have a future focus for all our children to inherit a community that provides for them in education, work, play and living opportunities. There are challenges that growth brings, such as transport, roading and urban development. I will continue to use my voice and experience to enable our community to benefit from any growth now and into our future.
About me
My background is as a Senior Manager with experience in community and economic development, community empowerment, and strategic planning, specialising in not-for-profit management, this provides me with a wide range of skills to call on during this time of intense change.
My priorities
- Support economic development.
- Advocate for equitable access to public facilities (including pools).
- Prepare Pukekohe for development so it can thrive whilst retaining local character and identity.
