Why I'm standing
I am passionate about Thames and the Coromandel. I believe continued representation is key to informed decision making and have worked hard to ensure I have upskilled and networked into the best I can be. I have continually sought out views from the wider community to ensure everyone is represented and kept informed of what decisions are to be made and how they can have a say.
About me
I consider due diligence and research key to this job and read everything we're presented with plus more besides. I have a masters degree in science, and can think critically about the vast range of issues our council deals with. I am a people person and have built and nurtured connections and networks to help keep me grounded in the community.
My priorities
- Spend time in all wards and communities to ensure always bringing a district-wide approach to the table.
- Create a communications plan for everyday matters of council and make it easy for all to get involved.
- Engage with the Māori ward councillor to find out how their role can be supported by other members.
