I am standing for election because I want to see true equity in representation and ensure that the voices of communities who don't traditionally participate are heard. Too often, council decisions are made without the people most affected being at the table. My motivation is to make council more accessible, transparent and connected and where everyone belongs and decisions are made with our mokopuna and their future at the heart.
I bring both experience and deep community connection. I have worked in local government for over 10 years and hold governance roles locally and nationally. Beyond this, I am actively involved in a diverse range of community groups, which keeps me grounded in the realities and aspirations of our people. I believe in inclusive, transparent leadership that puts community voices and values at the centre.
