Why I'm standing

I want to continue the work I have been doing on our community board over the past nine years to make our community stronger, safer and a better place to live.

About me

I grew up in the Papanui ward and have chosen to raise our family here. I have completed three terms on the community board, and have strong ties with a number of local community groups and schools. I am committed to communicating openly and honestly with our community, giving you an independent, knowledgeable voice at the table.

My priorities
  1. Improve the safety and efficiency of the road network around the Papanui retail and business area.
  2. Provide the necessary infrastructure in areas planned for higher-density housing.
  3. Ensure that local decisions can be made at the community board level by those who know the area best.
