Why I'm standing

I am standing for re-election because I believe our city is on the cusp of great potential. We have beautiful gullies, walkways, gardens, along with thriving community centres, arts and sporting facilities and I want to see this continue and develop. I have been in Council for one term - having knowledge at the table is vital especially as we face infrastructure challenges. I bring knowledge, hard work and diverse relationships and connections.

About me

I am known for being collaborative and respectful. I am a present and accountable city councillor. I attend a vast variety of community events. I listen and I respond to community concerns. I am honest and I bring a long-term focus. I am a strong analytical thinker and ask important questions.

My priorities
  1. Prioritise water infrastructure and support community housing providers to improve home affordability.
  2. Invest in nature, sustainable transport and waste minimisation to safeguard the future.
  3. Improve finances through shared services, reduced reliance on consultants and better benchmarking.
