Proven Leadership - Fresh Thinking
| Councillor and Chair of Strategy & Recovery Committee
My commitment is to be a mayor for all of Hastings. Our people are under financial pressure, housing is out of reach for too many, and recovery from Cyclone Gabrielle continues. Hastings needs experienced leadership that puts affordability first and unites the district. I will protect what works, cut what does not and lead a council that is transparent, listens and focuses on the basics so every generation can see a future here and thrive in Hastings.
I bring deep local roots and proven experience to this role. Flaxmere-born, Havelock-North-raised, now raising my family in Hastings, I understand the district and its people. Over eight years on council, I have led committees on housing, infrastructure, recovery and economic development – delivering savings and improving delivery. With 20 years' experience in business and governance, and as a leader in senior, multicultural and business groups, I am known for being approachable, transparent and steady under pressure.
