Why I'm standing

I want the area I grew up in, the Waitākere Ranges, become the same area me and all of my generation can live, thrive, retire and also raise their kids in. We should be able to find the same security and opportunity as anywhere else. No one can replicate the beauty of the Waitākere Ranges, but we can steal the best ideas around economic and social development to realize the areas potential.

About me

From managing a factory in New Lynn, to my years roofing, I've walked and worked with people from lots of backgrounds. I can be a voice for my generation and anyone else left feeling outside by current state of Auckland Council's bureacracy.

My priorities

  1. Addressing youth unemployment and crime through wraparound support and pathways into skills and jobs.
  2. Quickly develop efficient, low-zero emission alternatives for people getting to work in their cars.
  3. Make sure we follow the agenda of the community and not one predetermined by unelected bureaucrats.
