Why I'm standing
I am running because I believe in making Waitematā the best place to live and work. I believe we have the potential to be a world-class city, but it is vital to come to terms with the issues we are facing and tackle them head on. I believe in lower rates, better roads and safer and cleaner streets.
About me
I am no stranger to putting in the hard yards to get things done and bring a fresh perspective needed on the local board. I also have a proven track record in developing long-lasting relationships with stakeholders and working closely with small business owners. I understand the importance of clear communication and delivering practical results, and I will use these skills to advocate for the community.
My priorities
- Stop wasteful spending and deliver better value for ratepayers and residents.
- Ensure cleaner and safer streets by taking pride in the city.
- Get the city moving without sacrificing more public parking.
