Why I'm standing
I'm running for council to ensure our kids grow up in a district which retains all of its great qualities – its green spaces, its historic character and its sense of community – while building an adaptive and resilient community which we can all be proud of and is prepared for the changes ahead of us.
About me
I have knowledge of natural systems, good financial literacy and acumen and a wide range of interests. I can relate and converse easily with others on a multitude of subjects. I care about the welfare and wellbeing of others in our community. I am analytical, ask why and am always focused on understanding key drivers and inner workings of organisations and businesses. I believe people and culture are tantamount to success first and foremost.
My priorities
- Achieve acceptable and much improved outcomes for health services via the transition into Health NZ.
- Voice my concerns regarding generic zoning of medium density housing across a wide area of Oamaru.
- Push for economic metrics currently missed but are key drivers of social wellbeing.
