Why I'm standing

I'm a candidate in Kaipara ki Mahurangi to promote the Green Party and its principles of ecological wisdom, social responsibility, appropriate decision-making, and non-violence. I believe that Green party policies offer the most viable solutions to the climate crisis and ending inequity in Aotearoa.

About me

I am the Information and Sustainability Officer and shareholder in a $40 million turnover media company that employs 160 people. Ensuring the company's security, the well-being of my colleagues and the sustainability of our operations are what I do for a living. Those are the same qualities that should be found in our Members of Parliament.

My priorities
  1. End poverty, make sure everyone has enough to put food on the table, paid for by a fair tax system.
  2. Ensure warm, safe homes, as security in this is fundamental to well-being.
  3. Water is life, but our freshwater and kai moana are under serious threat.
