Kia ora, and thanks for visiting. I’ve dedicated my career to public service because I believe politics should make people’s lives better. That belief has guided my work as a Labour Member of Parliament, in ministerial roles, and throughout years of standing up for Mt Roskill.

What I’ve Delivered

• Major upgrades to local parks as a Local Board member

• A publicly accessible police station restored after its closure

• Public transport improvements across Mt Roskill

• A significant boost to public housing investment in the electorate

• Increases to the minimum wage, Fair Pay Agreements, and stronger health and safety laws to protect working people

• National‑level progress on cleaner transport, fair pay, and investments to protect Mt Roskill and other communities faced with flooding

What I’m Focused On Now

• Real action on the cost of living. More affordable healthcare and housing.

• Strengthening the public services families rely on

• Keeping our local neighbourhoods safe and resilient as we face a more unstable climate

• A fair go at work - decent wages, safe workplaces, and support for people as work changes

• Ensuring Mt Roskill has a strong voice in local and national decisions

My Priorities for Mt Roskill

• Getting houses built again on large empty sites left idle in our community

• Making doctors’ visits more affordable and accessible

• Supporting local small businesses and keeping our streets safe

• Improving public transport across the electorate

• Taking real action to reduce flooding risk and build climate resilience

Why I’m Still Committed

• I believe in constructive, values‑driven leadership

• Making real change is hard. I have the experience and toughness to get things done.

• I love Mt Roskill. It’s given me so much, and I am here to serve our community.
