Alex Hakizimana is a devoted father of three boys whose life journey reflects resilience, determination and a strong commitment to faith, family and community.
Born in the Democratic Republic of the Congo to Burundian parents, Alex fled conflict in 1997 and spent 12 years in a refugee camp in Tanzania before being resettled in Australia in 2009 through a UNHCR-supported program.
Determined to build a better future, Alex resumed his education in Australia and went on to complete diplomas in Early Childhood Education and Care, Community Services and Community Sector Management, together with a Certificate IV in Disability.
Raised in a Christian household, Alex's faith has shaped his commitment to serving others with compassion, honesty and integrity. Since 2016, he has served as Public Officer and Administrator of Vision Pentecostal Church of Community, managing organisational records, correspondence and administration.
Alex has also contributed to the Burundian community, serving as Vice-President of Australian Burundian from 2012 to 2013, supporting organisational planning and community engagement.
Professionally, Alex has worked as an interpreter with TIS National since 2020, helping people from diverse backgrounds access essential services. In 2023, he established Livelihood Support Services, an NDIS service provider, where he serves as Director, overseeing operations, service delivery and compliance.
Through his professional and community responsibilities, Alex has developed strong skills in leadership, respectful communication, collaboration and practical problem-solving. He believes in listening carefully to community concerns, considering different perspectives and working towards achievable solutions.
As a Family First candidate, Alex is committed to the values of faith, family and life. He seeks to strengthen families, support vulnerable people and contribute to communities where every individual is treated with dignity and respect.
Alex believes that meaningful community leadership begins with listening, serving others and turning compassion into practical action.
