Ryan Mckenzie portrait

Ryan Mckenzie

Official Candidate Biography

My name is Ryan McKenzie and I spend nearly all of my useful hours in Tawa. I work, walk the dog and run in Tawa.

I currently reside in Johnsonville and it is partly due to the influence of large commercial property holders in Johnsonville and seeing how they can impact the vibrancy and long term future of a suburb that I have a greater appreciation for local community advocacy.

As a former business owner I have experience that I feel would be valuable to the Tawa Community Board and I would work constructively with local residents, businesses and advocacy groups.

Tawa is a suburb that has an incredible amount to offer not just locally but to the Wellington Region, along with being a great place to live, work, and enjoy.

I ask for your support to serve the Tawa Community.
