I'm standing for Councillor to continue serving the community I live in and love. I bring experience as a two-term Puketāpapa Local Board member, Chair of the Manukau Harbour Forum, local school teacher, and volunteer with sporting and environmental groups. Improving transport has been a key priority. I've worked to make it safer and easier for people to get around - improving footpaths, boosting crosstown bus routes, and making it safer for kids biking to school. Environmental restoration has also been a key focus. I secured funding to repair the storm-damaged Waikōwhai Coast and restore local streams. As Forum Chair, I championed a healthier Manukau Harbour and secured regional investment. Auckland faces serious challenges: housing affordability, infrastructure pressure, and environmental degradation. I offer a future-focused approach and a strong record of listening to community voices and delivering practical solutions. Please vote for me, Julie Fairey, and the City Vision team.
