City Vision
Why I'm standing
I am passionate about Auckland's potential. I feel councillor is the best place for the skills I have developed and the positive vision I hold for this to be the greatest little city on the globe. I am standing for this ward as I am a city lover and can see many local opportunities to fix ongoing big problems and address bigger more global ones, like cost of living and climate change.
About me
I am a committed life-long Aucklander where I have raised a family and run a business. I am ambitious for our city on the sparkling Waitematā. I have a wealth of experience in governance, including four years on the NZTA board where I learnt how government works and how misunderstood our biggest city is there. I helped found Greater Auckland, the influential not-for-profit focussed on fixing our city's transport and urban form issues.
My priorities
- Assist the mayor in dealing with government, which I am well qualified for. This is council's most critical role.
- Rebalance transport and urban form to upgrade access to work and education, reducing congestion, pollution and cost.
- Repair community, upgrade and green neighbourhoods, balance budgets and uplift with arts, sports and events.
