Why I'm standing
As our community grows, I want to play my part to ensure that growth doesn't come at the expenses of the wonderful things that make up Ōmokoroa. At the same time, I want to ensure that our community board is reflective of the changing face of our community. Ōmokoroa needs to be a community that works well for everyone, from toddlers to retired people.
About me
Throughout my working career I have developed a range of skills and experience that will make me a good voice for the people of Ōmokoroa. I've worked in central government and understand the machinations of the public service. I've served on committees my whole life and for the last six years have been a Board member at Ōmokoroa Point School. Recently, I developed the business case to support the petition for a new secondary school.
My priorities
- Representing all demographics of the Ōmokoroa community, actively listening to concerns and ideas.
- Managing our future growth with respect to what already makes Ōmokoroa great!
- Fostering connections between council and community organisations, to make our town even better.
