Why I'm standing
I am running to make Porirua a safer, fairer and more connected city. I am a solo mother, business analyst and community advocate who understands the challenges our families face. I want to bring transparency, accountability and genuine community engagement to our council.
About me
I bring a strong track record of community service, business analysis expertise and a deep connection to Porirua's diverse communities. I am a solo mother and active local resident who understands real-life challenges and listens with empathy. I am committed to transparency, collaboration and making decisions that reflect the voices of all residents.
My priorities
- Launch MyRates to give residents real-time visibility of council spending and improve accountability.
- Support local through MyLocal helping residents shop locally and strengthening our community economy.
- Upgrade core infrastructure like water, roads and public spaces to ensure safety and quality of life.
