Why I'm standing

The council is going to need sensible financial management over the next three years. As a Chartered Accountant, I can use my skill set to deliver value for money to the ratepayers of Christchurch.

About me

I am accessible, approachable and professional.

My priorities
  1. Reign in council spending.
  2. Make council more enabling.
  3. Lift the value of our city's assets so that they provide a return.
