Mary−Anne was born in Auckland. My 30yrs as a Registered Nurse specialising in Risk Health Safety gives me considerable experience to make a valuable contribution. My vision is to ensure a safe & secure community where we feel safe to walk on our beaches with our families friends and dogs. I want to ensure that we continue to improve our transport system in Auckland. Ensure that our ratepayers money is spent wisely. As councillor I will listen & respond to the needs of the community. As my teachers of Carmel College Sr Mary Justine Gillies Sr Monica Costello Sr Pauline Engel said many times. Girls play the game don't be a bystander. That is why I'm standing for council. I want Auckland to continue to strive to succeed. Mary−Anne serves the community as a Justice of the
Peace.

Conflicts of Interest

To the best of my knowledge and belief, I have no conflicts of interest with the Waitemata District Health Board at the date of my notice of consent to being nominated as a candidate for membership for the board of the District Health Board, and I do not believe that any such conflicts of interest are likely to arise in future.
