My principal place of residence is in the Ōtorohanga District Council area.
My vision is a thriving Otorohanga District, a place that our people call home, where people want to live, work and enjoy all that Otorohanga has to offer. To feel a sense of belonging where our young people, our rangatahi can see a future.
As your mayor my commitment to Otorohanga district is strong leadership, a leader who is both visible and engaged in the Community, planning for future growth and managing the constant change of Local Government. My leadership will empower Councillors to be a high performing team developing sound policy, particularly financial, for Council to implement, and preparing for Councils Long-Term Plan. I will meet with businesses, Schools and Community groups listening to their challenges.
I will lead by being there for urban and rural communities and develop relationships with our local Iwi.
Progress takes leadership, leadership takes vision, vision transforms leadership, let’s move forward together
