Local and truly Independent<br />
Edgeware has been my home since I was<br />
a teenager, and whilst I have lived in other<br />
areas of New Zealand, my heart has always<br />
been here. I have a strong all-round business<br />
background which includes business mentoring,<br />
coaching and business strategy consultation.<br />
My experience includes Operations,<br />
Project, Financial and Team management.<br />
My key strengths are Strategic; Achiever;<br />
Responsibility; Focus; Competition and Relator.<br />
I am a passionate, practical person who likes<br />
to produce results. My son and I are both<br />
particularly enthusiastic about health and fitness<br />
and we both are involved in the swimming<br />
community. My Core Values are Respect,<br />
Integrity, Community, Harmony.<br />
In my view a practical approach is critical for<br />
smooth-running of community services along<br />
with a functional approach to providing multimodal<br />
transport infrastructure that integrates<br />
well together. Effective communication is<br />
needed between local residents and their<br />
council to achieve the best results for the<br />
community.<br />
I am a supporter of keeping things LOCAL –<br />
retaining jobs here by making decisions that<br />
align and support that.<br />
I encourage local resident participation by<br />
actively listening to and prioritising their views<br />
and considering their health and wellbeing.<br />
I have a long history of interest in local<br />
government – out of personal interest, not<br />
political affiliations. My main interests for<br />
Christchurch and Innes ward are: drainage,<br />
roading, housing intensions, rates, and water<br />
quality.<br />
Innes community needs to have a strong local<br />
voice and I wish to be your voice...<br />
