Why I'm standing

I love this place and care about its future. There are lots of challenges ahead.

About me

I have years of experience as a public servant. I am well practiced at listening to people's views, finding common ground, and working with others to find solutions. I am an effective advocate. I have the time now and will do the mahi.

My priorities
  1. Complete the plan for Tupua Horo Nuku by finalising the route through Days Bay.
  2. Ensure that housing and infrastructure development takes our changing climate into account.
  3. Advocate for reliable integrated public transport so that we can use our cars less.
