Why I'm standing

I have witnessed unaccounted growth in my hometown of Tauranga and do not want to see the Hurunui lose it's rural character, values and heritage for the sake of urban sprawl.

About me

I am a strategic thinker, communicator and decision maker and don't settle for the status quo for the sake of it. I am courageous and outspoken when I feel strongly about an issue and can confidently represent my community on that basis.

My priorities

Smart growth.
Private sector investment and tourism.
Youth and retirees.
