Why I'm standing

I moved back home to Kerikeri in 2016 so my two young children could have the upbringing that I had in the 80s and 90s here in Kerikeri where the town was full of pride and life. This town has a lot going for it and I want to help it continue so my grandkids would also want to live here one day.

About me

I prefer to look at what the issues are on the ground. I will put on the gumboots and tackle issues head on. I have a huge range of interests in town and I am constantly out and about listening to how our community is feeling.

My priorities
  1. Support groups who create events including the arts, sports, culture and environment.
  2. Investigate how to get road access to the new public land beach access at Onewhere Bay.
  3. Investigate how to fund an indoor swimming pool in Kerikeri.
