Why I'm standing

I currently provide solutions globally for the areas I am passionate about in the world. Now that I have established this credibility globally, my people want me to take four of those solutions and make them available locally. I see situations in my city that I have solutions for, that directly impact my family, so I am running for council to provide them.

About me

I am a global influencer, a level I have achieved from the ground up. Starting as an 18-year-old soldier in this city, moving on to becoming a community police officer in this city and ending up as the regional operations manager for Asia Pacific, and now providing solutions globally as the founder of the Lion Academy, my track record for actually achieving outcomes is my strongest positioning. I've lived here for 30 years.

My priorities
  1. Providing mental health and suicide solutions for our city.
  2. Providing solutions to youth, gang and crime issues.
  3. Supporting our uniformed frontline staff including our teachers and community workers.
