About Me

As a long time resident of Broadmeadows, I have worked hard with the community and the council since 2016. I’ve fought hard for better open spaces, recreational facilities and for the basic needs of our community. I believe we deserve the same options and opportunities other residents of Melbourne enjoy.

I share my home with my husband Suraj and our beloved pet, Gemma. I enjoy recreational tennis, taking walks with Gemma, and watching historical documentaries—when I’m not busy reading council papers and addressing the needs of our residents.
