Why I'm standing
I'm running because our city is at a crossroads and needs fresh, bold leadership that listens, acts and delivers real results. Too often, decisions are slow or reactive, and our community deserves leaders who are solution-focused, accountable and committed to positive change. I want to tackle challenges head-on, improve services, strengthen our economy and ensure every resident feels valued and heard. It's time for leadership that doesn't just talk about change but makes it happen.
About me
I will make a good elected representative because I bring over 20 years of governance experience across multiple sectors, combined with a deep commitment to my community. I listen actively, act responsibly and focus on delivering practical solutions. I have strong connections across diverse communities in our city and a proven track record of leading with integrity, accountability and a focus on results that benefit everyone.
My priorities
- Reduce wasteful spending and manage rates responsibly to protect services for all residents.
- Invest in core infrastructure – roads, transport, parks – to strengthen our city and community.
- Build a vibrant, connected city with affordable parking, lively events and community energy.
