Why I'm standing
I believe Auckland can do better. For 26 years I've lived, worked, and raised a family here, and I've seen our city's potential held back by waste, poor planning, and misplaced priorities. I'm running to change that. We need leadership that is practical, courageous, and focused on results. My vision is a city where communities are strong, infrastructure works, and ratepayer money delivers real value. Together, we can restore pride in local government.
About me
I have lived in the Albert-Eden area for 26 years and understand the needs of local families, homeowners, and businesses. With a background in computer science, small business, and two decades as a real estate agent, I bring both analytical skills and practical community experience. I believe in personal responsibility, efficiency, and accountability. I am approachable, independent-minded, and committed to listening carefully, speaking honestly, and working hard to ensure council decisions deliver real value.
My priorities
- End wasteful spending by stopping vanity projects and budget blowouts and delivering value for ratepayer money.
- Improve traffic by ending excessive traffic-calming and Vision Zero policy and focusing on safety and efficiency.
- Dump emissions target by rejecting costly carbon goals and investing in stormwater, flood and slip protection.
