Why I'm standing
Time and again, the Papakura Local Board has let residents down with neglected facilities, wasteful spending, and ideology-driven decisions. It's time for a shake-up. As your ACT Local candidate, I'll bring practical solutions, less waste, and a strong focus on core services like roads, water, and rubbish. With me, you'll get common sense, accountability, and a commitment to doing what works. If you want real change, please give me one of your votes.
About me
As a long-time Papakura local, having owned a local business, and community supporter, I understand the everyday issues our neighbourhoods face. With over 15 years of leadership experience in sales and management, I bring a practical, solutions-focused approach to local challenges. As your ACT Local candidate, I'll deliver disciplined, accountable leadership that puts residents first, focuses on what matters, and restores common sense to council. It's time Papakura's voice was truly heard and respected.
My priorities
- Cut waste and keep rates low by focusing council on essentials only.
- Fix basics including roads, drains and water infrastructure that locals depend on.
- Cut red tape so homes and businesses can grow affordably.
