Why I'm standing
I am running because I believe Hamilton is heading in the wrong direction, with rising costs and poor decision-making impacting everyday residents. I want to bring strong financial management, common sense, and accountability back to council so we can build a city that is affordable, well-run, and focused on what matters to our community.
About me
I have over a decade of experience working with builders, contractors, and residents to deliver practical solutions and get things done. My MBA and business background give me strong financial and management skills, while my community connections ensure I understand local needs. I am committed to listening, being transparent, and making decisions that put residents first.
My priorities
- Stop wasteful spending to keep rates affordable for residents and businesses.
- Prioritise essential infrastructure to support growth and daily needs.
- Attract new businesses to create jobs and strengthen the economy.
