Why I'm standing
I'm standing for the Kaipātiki Local Board because I want there to be more young people in local government. I want to be part of making decisions that will affect our area for generations to come and I want to ensure that the voices of young people are heard.
About me
I grew up in Totara Vale and have lived in Kaipātiki ever since, attending local schools such as Target Road Primary School and Wairau Intermediate. I'm a daily public transport user, a cyclist and a student. I believe I bring a unique lived experience and a fresh new perspective.
My priorities
- Putt climate action at the forefront of all local board decisions.
- Ensure intergenerational equity with long term thinking.
- Promote greater community participation in local government.
