Joan Shi

I am an immigrant and single mother of two lovely children who call Wellington home. My children and I have enjoyed 13 wonderful years living in this city. As Wellington is the hometown of my children, I have a genuine passion for making Wellington a better place.

I understand how difficult it can be to be heard. As a working mother, I have honed problem-solving skills, learned to manage stress, and made things work. When things are beyond my expertise, I know how to ask for help and listen.

My focus: prioritise council spending towards core infrastructure and essential services for the community, especially repairing leaking pipes, providing better and affordable public transportation and nurturing a business-friendly environment.

If my life journey resonates with you, please vote for me. I am more than happy to represent you and am committed to making myself available for our community.
