Why I'm standing

I am deeply motivated to run for the local board due to the threats posed by climate change and rising social inequity. My vision is for a thriving, inclusive Puketāpapa and wider Auckland region, built on safe and sustainable neighbourhoods that enable equal opportunities through affordable housing and a supported community. I aim to foster infrastructure that allows people to live with ease and well-being, and to ensure our environment is protected for future generations.

About me

I am a new mother and architect specialising in environmental and social impact. I am knowledgeable about community engagement, planning mixed-use developments, and designing great public spaces. As a company owner, I bring a practical, results-oriented approach, ensuring that solutions are not only well-conceived but achievable. Employing these unique skills and my firsthand understanding of our community's needs, I will effectively shape a thriving future for Puketāpapa that works for you and all of us.

My priorities
  1. Develop sustainable neighbourhoods focusing on transport, infrastructure and housing.
  2. Foster resilient communities, enabling fair access to resources, facilities and support.
  3. Create safe, accessible, well-designed public spaces for increasing density and everyone's well-being.
