I am standing for the Whau Local Board to bring fresh ideas and strategic development to our community . As a long-time West Auckland resident - living with my family here for over 20 years. End the monopoly, bring ethnic diversity in Auckland council board. I believe it’s time to end the status quo and bring new energy and representation to the board, especially by increasing ethnic diversity and cultural understanding at the decision-making level. With a strong background in large corporate sectors, I bring strategic thinking and vision to ensure better planning and more efficient use of ratepayers’ funds. Our community urgently needs improvements in infrastructure, roads, schools, local business support, public transport, and crime prevention. I am passionate about advocating for these priorities to help make Whau a safer, smarter, and stronger place to live. Together, let’s build a better future for Whau.
