councillor, Nelson Park Ward

Why I'm standing

I want to live in a safe, connected community, and running for council is a way of working towards this. I believe being on council gives many opportunities to make Napier a better place to live. I also enjoy speaking up for people who may not otherwise be heard at the council table, including children.

About me

I have a background in secondary teaching, including twelve years in the UK. I enjoy communicating with people from a range of backgrounds. I am persistent on the important issues and am not afraid to speak up. My values are transparency, inclusiveness and keeping things simple.

My priorities
  1. Ensure the city’s streets are safe for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.
  2. Advocate for a healthier city including promoting walking and cycling and reducing air pollution.
  3. Protect reserves and beaches from rubbish and pollution and protect biodiversity.
