Why I'm standing
I'm standing for the Bay of Plenty Regional Council because I believe we need strong, practical leadership to protect our environment, support local jobs, and ensure value for our rates.
About me
I bring a background in science, business, and community service - from forecasting the weather at MetService to co-directing Legacy Funerals, which has returned $4 million to local charities. I've chaired organisations like Tauranga Arts Festival, Film BOP, and the Sustainable Business Network. After 22 years living in Mount Maunganui, raising a family, and building an award winning business, Wave Agency - I'm ready to serve with energy and integrity.
My priorities
- Support sustainable industries and invest Port of Tauranga returns wisely to grow jobs and protect our future.
- Protect and restore wetlands and waterways to build resilience against climate change.
- Keep rates affordable, strengthen community voice, and improve public transport across the region.
