I am married to Vasa with three beautiful daughters and have been part of this unique community for 25 years.

Having worked with Trusts, Community-focused organizations and schools, I am passionate about serving on the Local Board of Puketapapa alongside like-minded people.

My heart is to pro-actively link and engage our culturally diverse community in building a better future.  Together, we will be able to recognize and gain a greater understanding of the shifts that are taking place in the community and the realities of what our families are facing.  Affordability, youth and neighbourhood support are key issues for our families.

I am committed to building and strengthening relationships with local boards, committees, community projects, and people who have a passion to work towards a shared vision for our city.

 

I will be more effective if you support the total CITIZENS & RATEPAYERS team in the Eden-Albert Roskill Ward.

I am supporting our great Council Candidates: Christine FLETCHER  and Paul GOLDSMITH.

I am standing for election and supporting our awesome team for the Puketapapa (Mt Roskill) Local Board:

1. Richard BARTER
2. Ella KUMAR
3. Peter MUYS
4. Ram RAI
5. Nigel TURNBULL
