Why I'm standing
I believe that Whau needs representation to reflect the growing diverse population. It is critical to represent voice of all ratepayers, business and renters and vulnerable communities. I am local and I have lived in Whau for over three decades. I am a company director, governance board member of Drowning Prevention Auckland, National Lotteries Committee and Chair the Whau Ethnic Collective, a ratepayer funded group. I seek a sustainable, resilient Whau where all people thrive.
About me
I am a local and I am vested in Whau. I am a practical community engagements individual and have been instrumental in leading events alongside Auckland Council. I have governance and community development skills and experience. I have studied public management, project management and public policy. I have experience running public funded organizations. I am about people I serve and will always put people, not politics first. Your vote will help me serve.
My priorities
- Introduce a Safer Whau Plan in association with NZ Police, business, communities and residents.
- Encourage and empower communities social cohesion through resources and funds to come together.
- Commit to responsible spending – use local people for local contracts to refurbish local areas.
