Welcome to the Ninth Council District of Honolulu

Aloha District 9

I am so excited and honored to serve as your Councilmember in the Honolulu City Council. My staff and I are hard at work, prioritizing public safety, advocating for improvements in our communities, bringing innovation and transparency to City Hall and city services, and looking for ways to bring back our economy after the COVID 19 pandemic. 

This website is one way we can stay connected. Here, my team will post our neighborhood board reports, community updates and actions, pending legislation, and a list of resources available to residents in Waikele, Village Park, Royal Kunia, Mililani Town, West Loch, Iroquois Point, Ewa Villages and Ewa Beach.
