Why I'm standing

I'm running to reclaim New Zealand from ideological extremism, championing individual property rights, personal responsibility, and minimal government interference. Leveraging my extensive background in law, business, and past political roles, I aim to decentralise financial systems and localise governance. I'm committed to crafting a future where empowered individuals build resilient communities. It's high time we shifted from bureaucratic inefficiency to citizen-centric governance.

About me

With a background in law, science, and business, I bring a multi-faceted approach to problem-solving. My track record in efficient governance, from the ACT Party Board to managing five businesses, proves my commitment to empowering individuals over bureaucratic inefficiency. I excel at dissecting complex issues and delivering straightforward, fact-based solutions that serve the community. I am dedicated to representing my constituents, not to maintaining a political fiefdom.

My priorities
  1. Significantly reduce the tax burden.
  2. Return local decisions to locals.
  3. Enforce individual property rights.
