Why I'm standing
I believe we can do better. Work with the people who want to be involved and be a voice for people who don't want to be involved.
About me
I have governance and management experience.
My priorities
- Listen to the people. The decision of the majority should prevail.
- Change the mindset of public's assumption of the council having predetermined outcomes.
- Be the voice of the community.
