My name is Li'amanaia Lorenzo Kaisara. I'm a proud South Aucklander living in Manurewa. I currently serve as an elected member of the Ōtara-Papatoetoe Local Board and work full time as a Community Engagement Manager for Tāmaki Health, the largest private healthcare provider in South Auckland. I'm passionate about breaking down barriers and improving access to health and support services for our whānau. Since being elected in 2023, I've worked hard to honour the trust placed in me, advocating for grassroots solutions that put people first. I'm standing for the Wiri Licensing Trust to continue my service, ensuring community funding from local licensing is directed to initiatives that benefit our people, particularly in education, health, and wellbeing. I bring strong governance experience, lived knowledge of our communities, and a heart of service to everything I do. With your support, I'll continue to represent our voice with integrity, accountability, and purpose.
