Keeping myself healthy and well from the many outdoor pursuits, which are provided by clubs and communities within the Central Otago region, I’m committed to make sure our council listens to locals and act for the long term good of Central Otago. With experience in community initiatives and a knack for getting things done, I’m ready to roll up my sleeves for you.

We need to attract young, skilled people as our future while also looking after those already residing here. Affordability is an issue; consult, invest and spend appropriately to ensure resources fit the needs of our communities and enable businesses, both urban and rural, to thrive.

Brought up in Ranfurly I have lived in many rural communities, moving to Alexandra three years ago as a veterinarian with PGG Wrightson.

I listen to all sides, make decisions that best suit our community and then get things done.
