Kellie Armstrong is the Alliance MLA for Strangford. She is the Party's chief whip and spokesperson on Infrastructure.
Prior to election to the Assembly, Kellie was co-opted to replace Kieran McCarthy as Councillor on Ards Borough Council and then elected in 2014 to Ards and North Down Borough Council representing the Ards Peninsula. Kellie stood as the Alliance Westminster candidate in 2015, securing the highest ever vote for an Alliance representative in the Strangford constituency.
Kellie has over 16 years' experience and skills in transport operations and legislation. Kellie is passionate about integrated education and has drafted a private member's bill on that issue. She is also committed to ensuring better access to services for people with disabilities. In March 2016, over 8,500 people signed her petition calling on both the Health and Education Ministers to reduce diagnosis waiting times and provide better access to services for children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder.
For nine years Kellie was the Northern Ireland Director of Community Transport Association (CTA), delivering transport solutions for older people and people with disabilities through community led initiatives.
