Why I'm standing

For a long time Riccarton has missed out on some great opportunities, I'm running because I want to raise my family in a ward that has everything on our doorstep. Clean roads, beautiful parks and awesome playgrounds. It's important that we innovate in our thinking to address the very real local issues that lie ahead of us. I wish to be a part of the change by bringing authentic and meaningful engagement.

About me

I am a small business owner by trade – I run a social enterprise based on providing access to sports to deprived communities, and I also run a consultancy business. I am a very optimistic, solutions-focused, people person who values collaboration, purpose and integrity. I have experience in many committees and water management groups. I am heavily involved in multicultural councils and celebrate diversity in all facets!

My priorities
  1. Ensure over-intensification is addressed and prevented in our suburbs while actioning climate change.
  2. Invest in rapid mass transport to create a functional public transport network for Christchurch.
  3. Safeguarding our strategic assets.
