Why I'm standing
I'm running for council because I believe Wellington can be better. The Takapū ward is my home and I want to see the region reach its full potential. I'll push for more housing, better infrastructure, and reliable and accessible public transport. I'll also work to make the city and suburbs an attractive place to invest and do business in order to drive our local economy.
About me
If elected I'll be a fierce advocate for the Takapū ward from Tawa through to Johnsonville. This is my home, where I went to school and have spent most of my life. I understand intimately the challenges we face locally and will work closely with our communities. I've spent over a decade working in financial services through insurance broking, funds management and marketing which will allow me to hit the ground running at council.
My priorities
- Stop the leaks – fix Wellington's woeful water infrastructure.
- Ensure delivery of the Grenada North Park Sports Hub before 2027.
- Implement urgent action to address current and future flooding from the Porirua Stream.
