Prior to becoming a councillor, I pledged action toward urban rejuvenation, innovation, community engagement and delivering our core services better. We have made great progress but there is much that remains. Moving forward, we need a strong voice committed to protecting our assets, delivering optimal reform outcomes and planned infrastructure projects; museum, city centre rejuvenation and Three Waters.
I'm energetic, excited and completely dedicated to driving Invercargill forward. I work tirelessly for the future of Invercargill. Armed with strength of character, youthful perspective and personal integrity, I will continue to employ fiscally responsible leadership and strive to ensure the interests of ratepayers and residents always come first. I have learned a great deal over the past six years and continue to serve and remain steadfast in attendance and commitment.
