I was raised in Kelston and attended St Mary’s in Avondale. My family has proudly served in the Whau community for over 40 years. I’m passionate about Māori and Pasifika empowerment. Our parks, streams, and reserves are the energy of our community. I’m committed to protecting and enhancing our green spaces for future generations to enjoy. I believe in the strength of locally led solutions that reflect the unique cultures, voices, and needs of each community. Strengthening our community preparedness and our local hubs is a priority, a drive shaped by my time managing the Kelston Community Hub during the 2023 floods. Our elders are the heart of our community. My proudest initiative was founding the local Māori and Pasefika elders group, so they feel connected, and valued. Whau Labour brings the right balance, diversity, and a progressive voice for you.
