Why I'm standing
During a time of significant change and reform, our district needs strategic, positive and engaged elected members to ensure the best outcomes of current and future generations, and for our environment. Like you, I know that we need to adapt to change in a constructive way. I am standing again to ensure that positive outcomes for community and environment are at the heart of council's work, and not simply maintaining the status quo.
About me
I grew up in our community, I have worked our community and I have served on many committees in our community. I know our community and the challenges and opportunities across our community. Having worked in local government and community utilities for eight years, I also offer pragmatic local government experience and knowledge of the rapidly evolving laws and regulations council operates under. I will always work for the best outcomes for our community and environment.
My priorities
- Improve the social, cultural, environmental and economic wellbeing of our community and district.
- Positive and community focused engagement with local government reforms.
- Transparent and strategic decision-making processes guided by genuine community engagement.
