Why I'm standing
I love helping people. I was asked to run and heeded the call. I thought it was a great synergy for my current charitable objectives at the HighSide in Karioitahi. I see it as an opportunity to give back to and engage with the community.
About me
I am an ex-Air New Zealand pilot and have honed leadership and decision-making in high-pressure settings. I have an architecture degree, and construction and property development experience, which equip me to tackle planning and infrastructure challenges creatively and effectively. Every day I am out on the land finding solutions to problems. If I get elected onto the Franklin local board I will bring my passion for solving problems to our community every day.
My priorities
- Get the basics right, including quality roading, safety and services as the core responsibility.
- Protect and manage our unique coastal assets and waterways.
- Support community wellbeing and facilities.
