Why I'm standing
I'm standing for Wainuiomata Community Board because I know the importance of local, community-led, collaborative decision making. I've seen Wainuiomata lead the way for Aotearoa, and would be honoured to be part of continuing that legacy, shaping a shared vision for the future with our community.
About me
I believe the future of democracy is local. That decisions made together lead to a thriving environment, thriving biodiversity, and thriving communities. I'm an Environmental Studies and Statistics university student, experienced community organiser, and climate justice advocate. I'm a collaborator, always seeking to connect and work together, and taking into account diverse perspectives to inform group decisions. I'd love the opportunity to give back to Wainuiomata, the place and community that's given me so much.
My priorities
- Local community and youth engagement for collaborative decision making.
- A communicative, visible and accessible community board.
- Wainuiomata continuing to lead the way in biodiversity and local democracy.
