Why I'm standing

I believe Waihi Beach is an awesome place to live and play, and want to give back to the community that our family has lived in for twenty years.

About me

As a business owner, Event Manager and Celebrant, with a background and understanding in roading and infrastructure, tourism, events, and exhibitions, I know how these can benefit a community through employment, improved infrastructure, facilities, transport links, and also build a sustainable long-term economic environment for future generations. I know how to read an agenda, business plan and track progress within an organisation.

My priorities
  1. Improve the Waihi Beach community's security and safety.
  2. Develop regular public transport links from Waihi Beach to nearby communities.
  3. Support the development of a sustainable event plan to encourage an improved economic environment.
