Why I'm standing
I'm standing because I love Motueka, Kaiteriteri, Mārahau, and Riwaka. I am passionate about making desirable destinations to live, start a family, have a career or grow happily old. I want people to be connected, thrive and live their best lives. I want more vibrance and diversity in people, professional opportunities, art and culture, sports and events that cater all age groups. I'm standing because I know we can all have a better future together.
