As a member of the local board since 2010, I have held various roles including as its Chair, Deputy Chair, lead for parks, events, leases, SH20 projects and more. I am currently the Board Chair and accountable to you. I have worked continuously to improve services and facilities and bring new events and projects to Albert-Eden.

The SH20 Waterview project changed our area. On your behalf, I fought for and helped secure $64M worth of benefits for the affected communities and environment in Mt Albert, Owairaka,
Waterview and Pt Chevalier. I am also a planning commissioner. I have a strong governance background in education both locally and regionally. I chaired Waterview School’s Board for 12 years, was appointed by the Minister of Education to the Board of Northern Regional Health Schools for 6 years, have been a Trustee for the Mt Albert Pool, a
philanthropic trust and the Portage Licensing Trust. I am a nurse.

My ethos is: work hard, provide robust governance direction and decisions to deliver for communities and the environment.
