Hi, I’m Carli.

I am committed to representing the diverse needs of all Yarra Ward residents as a resident myself.

Our growing Manningham community needs to focus on and value the unique history of our townships by embracing change which puts the needs of residents, environment, reserves and local businesses first.

Local council has the greatest influence on our ‘leafy green’ ward and I am an advocate for innovative decisions to secure its semi-rural future.

My priorities are: the provision of quality services, environment and community safety, responsible development and maintenance of community infrastructure, and effective governance, critical learning and strategic risk management.

As a mother of three and primary/secondary teacher/tutor and daughter of retired parents and granddaughter, I understand all the needs, pressures and pleasures that come with life across four generations.

As a resident of the unique environment of Warrandyte and Yarra Ward, I’ve been actively involved in our community by initiating and conducting campaigns that authentically, transparently and proactively represent our communities needs and concerns. Also, I’ve been our community's voice as the Manningham Mayor in 2024, Yarra Ward Councillor since 2020, Warrandyte Community Association President (WCA) since 2018, Chair of the Warrandyte Emergency Housing Support Serve (EHSS), Chair of the North East Link Forum (NELF). Member on Lions Park upgrade, Member on Warrandyte Dairy renovation, Member on Jumping Creek Road (JCR) upgrade, Chair of Warrandyte Canine Residents (WCR) and advocate for Gooligulch Play Space in Wonga Park and 100 Acres Friends group in Park Orchards.

My aim is to: listen to the community, work towards achieving the best results for our community and be accountable.

I look forward to creating a sustainable community for future generations.
