I'm standing to be your councillor in the upcoming election because I love Auckland. Our city is a great place to live but we need more passion, ambition and leadership to make it everything it could be.

For over a decade I’ve worked as a problem solver for large organisations, helping them improve outcomes for customers, staff and shareholders. I want to use my skills, experience and love for our city to improve Auckland for everyone. I will fight for proper investment in East Auckland, improve transport, preserve our environment and ensure our communities have a strong voice.

You can contact me anytime on Neighbourly, Facebook, mobile (022 543 7601) or via my website.

With your support, I will provide the vision and leadership to tackle the tough issues, put in the hard work and ensure the people of East Auckland are heard at the council table.
