Candidate Statement

My principal place of residence is in the area.

Kia ora. As a long time Carterton resident, I believe in the good people of our town. I believe we should be well represented by all and it is everyone’s job to look after our whānau. I hold to Christian values and my background is technology and engineering. My wife and I own a restaurant and our son attends school locally.

I am committed to protecting the environment, and believe the only way to protect the environment is to act locally, and provide the industries with the tools needed to improve themselves.

I want local small businesses to thrive, so our community is resilient in the face of adversity.

I don’t believe in wasting money, and will hold myself and other members accountable for spending. I am also technologically astute and will question why we are doing things a particular way to ensure value.
