Why I'm standing

I feel incredibly fortunate to call the Devonport/Takapuna community home. It is a great place to visit and a fantastic place to live, but our community is facing challenges and change. I believe we need pragmatic, future-focused solutions.

About me

I am a television presenter and producer and have spent the best part of my life helping the underdog fight for a fair go, holding 'the powers that be' to account and showcasing our sporting success on the world stage. I believe success is always collaborative. Working together as a community is where we draw strength. A vote for me ensures independent decision making driven by a vision for a better future.

My priorities
  1. Ensure Devonport/Takapuna remains a great place to live for future generations.
  2. Ensure parks, libraries and community facilities are promoted and managed to ensure their survival.
  3. Fight for rates affordability, better infrastructure and help build a prosperous community.
