Why I'm standing

I don't come with any agenda, just an offer to serve the community.

About me

I have a strong background in developing solutions to everyday problems and I have a wide set of skills across many disciplines and sectors. I am an environmental contractor, a farmer, an educator and outdoors person with a passion for the rural community. I believe in integrity as a core principle of character.

My priorities
  1. Listen to and support the local community and ensure aspirations are heard by council representatives.
  2. Ensure council adequately supports the local community through infrastructure and services.
  3. Ensure engagement is democratic, representative and inclusive across the community.
