Phillip Keleti

Malo lava le soifua manuia ma le lagi e mama.

My name is Phillip Keleti, I am Samoan, born and raised in New Zealand, from the villages of Laulii in Upolu and Salelologa in Savai’i.

I joined Le Va in June 2024 and I am passionate and excited about serving our Pasifika communities in suicide prevention with our FLO: Pasifika for Life team.

My background is in project and change management, delivering ICT projects for the past 15 years, but most of my career has been in health in both Auckland in community development and more recently supporting the implementation of digital hospitals in Queensland where I lived for 12 years.

Outside of work, I am a deacon at Grey Lynn EFKS, and I currently serve as one of many faipese and conductors in our church.
