Why I'm standing

I am running to restore our district's promise. It is a promise that rates will not keep going up without results, that services will actually improve, and that council spending will be honest and efficient. Too many hardworking families are getting hit with higher costs and broken promises. I am here to cut waste, deliver real results, and put control back in the hands of the people who pay for it all.

About me

I will make a good elected representative because I am not afraid to challenge the status quo and call out waste and incompetence. I live here, I work here, and I know what ratepayers want, which is lower costs, better services, and honest leadership. I am ready to roll up my sleeves, cut through bureaucracy, and get real results for the people who actually pay the bills.

My priorities
  1. Cut rates and cap increases to inflation to protect ratepayers.
  2. Push for train stations in Tuakau and Pōkeno to boost growth.
  3. Roll out wheelie bins to every home, funded by current rates and council savings.
