Why I'm standing

I love working for our community. I have served our community since 2016 on the Kaipātiki Local Board and am seeking re-election.

About me

I have a track record of working for the benefit of our community and getting things done. I have an extensive background in local government including a MPhil in public policy, local government and active recreation. I grew up in Kaipātiki and live in Beach Haven with my husband and two boys.

My priorities
  1. Continue working to improve maintenance of public spaces and the environment.
  2. Oppose congestion charging without improved public transportation.
  3. Continue to support families, young people and community development initiatives.
