Why I'm standing

I'm running because Wellingtonians have told me loud and clear that they want a city that's affordable, vibrant, safe, and easy to move around. I'm ready to deliver on that vision and build a city where everyone can thrive with more affordable housing and a vibrant inner city. We can't fix Wellington by going back to the way things were. With your support I will work tirelessly to make Wellington fit for the future.

About me

In my first year as your Councillor I've secured 183 affordable homes, with 500 more on the way; tripled investment in our critical water infrastructure; and decarbonised our pools to save the climate – and save you $10 million over the next 10 years. My track record shows I can work collaboratively across the council table to get sweeping support for initiatives that set our city up for success.

My priorities
  1. Deliver more affordable housing by switching the rating system so land bankers pay more.
  2. Back projects that make the city more vibrant – a city people are excited to move to, not leave.
  3. Deliver bus lanes and a cycle network to enable more affordable ways to get around the city fast.
