Why I'm standing

I believe ratepayers have been let down with higher rates, more bureaucracy and wasteful projects, while core services are neglected. It's time to give Howick Local Board a wake-up call and get back to basics. By voting for me as your ACT local candidate, you know what you will get: lower rates, practical solutions and a focus on essential services. If you want to see common sense restored and wasteful spending stopped!

About me

I'm running to cut waste, keep rates affordable, and make council work for you. With experience leading global tech projects and running my own AI business, I know how to manage budgets and hold decision-makers accountable. Living in Mellons Bay, I see the pressures families face from rising costs and poor services. My focus is simple: fix the basics—roads, water, rubbish—restore transparency, and treat all residents fairly. Local government should serve ratepayers, not itself.

My priorities
  1. Cut waste and keep rates low by focusing council on essentials only.
  2. Fix basics including roads, traffic congestion, drains and water infrastructure that locals depend on.
  3. Cut red tape so homes and businesses can grow affordably.
