Why I'm standing

I am running for the Manurewa Local Board because I care deeply about our community and its future. I want to ensure that our young people, families and elders have the support, opportunities and safe spaces they need to thrive. I believe Manurewa has incredible potential, and I want to work closely with residents to make our neighbourhood stronger, healthier and more connected.

About me

I will make a good elected representative because I am committed to serving people with integrity and dedication. I bring years of experience working in our community, strong leadership skills, and a deep understanding of the challenges and needs of Manurewa residents. Guided by my values of service, trust and collaboration, I will listen to the community, amplify their voices, and work tirelessly to create positive change.

My priorities
  1. Develop sports and recreation facilities to improve health and wellbeing for youth and families.
  2. Improve pedestrian and cycling paths to provide safe, active travel for young people and residents.
  3. Support local businesses and jobs to grow Manurewa's economy and create opportunities for families.
