Why I'm standing
Manurewa is my community, where I've volunteered for over 10 years and served families through Playcentre, schools and Funfest. I believe it's time for change—fresh ideas to support young people, safer walkways and cleaner neighbourhoods. I want to ensure weekly rubbish collections, better facilities and fair opportunities so every whānau can thrive.
About me
I bring proven community service, leadership and practical management experience. From running budgets in hospitality to supporting whānau through mental health and addiction services, I know how to listen, lead and deliver results. As a trustee, volunteer and service manager, I've shown I care deeply for Manurewa. I'll bring dedication, accountability and new energy to represent our diverse community.
My priorities
- Fix footpaths, clear drains and support weekly rubbish collections to create healthy neighbourhoods.
- Continue Puhinui Stream work walkway linking The Gardens and Hillpark to Wirihana and Manukau.
- Maintain existing assets to prevent losses like Tadmor Hall and ensure long-term community use.
