Why I'm standing

I believe Manurewa and New Zealand can be great again and I stand with Vision NZ because they are the only party that prioritise the nuclear family and the role of men in achieving this.

About me

I am a husband, father and grandfather with years of hands on experience supporting and empowering men, families and communities throughout Manurewa.

My priorities

  1. Empower the men, families and communities of Manurewa to thrive and prosper.
  2. Support the young people of Manurewa; access education and training and employment.
  3. Support local businesses and infrastructure flourish after the destruction of the Covid-19 response.
