I have lived in Hawke’s Bay my entire life and have travelled the world more than 30 times. Along the way, I raced motorcycles and became a champion in three different countries. I am fortunate to have a wonderful life surrounded by the best friends anyone could ask for, and now I want to give back to my community by serving on council.
I’m standing because I believe the current council has failed in its responsibility to manage money wisely. Spending beyond income by such large amounts puts unnecessary debt on our community. I want to bring accountability, common sense, and financial responsibility back into local government.
