APPROACH

​

As a ratepayer and small business owner, and with the unprecedented damage of COVID19 this year and its ongoing impact, I am fully aware and appreciative of the difficulties and challenge that so many of us are experiencing. 

​

Listening to, supporting and strengthening small business in our community is vital to Warrnambool's future in the face of this pandemic.

​

I want to work hard for our community in all areas, specifically targeting support and growth in tourism, an area i believe has untapped potential. In light of COVID19, this will become increasingly important as city-dwellers now more seriously consider a sea change or tree change. 

​

Given my beginnings here as a young professional, I want to keep attracting and retaining young people to our city, something so important in sustaining and increasing important services for our district.

​

For the last three years, I have attended monthly Council meetings, and have been proactive in asking public questions related to parking, Council spending, CBD works and other issues affecting our community. I have asked important and probing questions, always asking for transparency and accountability - which is exactly what I intend to continue doing if elected.
