Why I'm standing
I care about the future of Lower Hutt and I want to ensure that there are a diverse range of perspectives at the council table. In these uncertain times, it is important that council reflects the cultural diversity, skills and varied life experiences of our communities.
About me
I will add value and bring experience, integrity and heart to the council table. As a community board chair, I know how to navigate local government to achieve positive outcomes. I'm passionate about community governance and currently serve on the Home of Compassion Board of Directors, the Manaaki Ability Trust Board and the Wainuiomata Community Board. I'm an operatically trained tenor, a white ribbon ambassador and district commander for the Māori wardens.
My priorities
- Infrastructure. Work to find the $1.27 Billion needed to bring our water network up to standard.
- Youth Leadership Forum. An opportunity for youth to tell us about their aspirations.
- Resilience Plan. A comprehensive resilience plan that includes flood protection and land slips.
