Why I'm standing
I am running for local board because I'm firmly of the view that in Hibiscus we need people with actual experience of working in our community. People who understand collaboration and co-operation get things done. I want to focus on local representation. In particular, I am motivated to deliver to the Whangaparāoa community. They have been woefully under-served by successive representatives.
About me
I am a visionary, a person who knows how to create a big goal that unites. In my business career I have been involved in people industries. Today I give as a trustee on two Whangaparāoa community trusts and the Rodney area trust for Life Education's "Healthy Harold" programme. I currently work in customer facing roles.
My priorities
- Support the building of a community centre/hub on the Whangaparāoa peninsula.
- Lobby for at least a third active lane on Penlink as a dynamic lane for public transport and PSVs.
- Get the Ōrewa sea wall built.
