My Priorities
Listening to the community, not party politics, to deliver real, practical solutions for housing, healthcare, small business, sustainable energy, and a fairer future.
Affordable Housing and Healthcare (Making the Basics Affordable)
Housing security and healthcare access are fundamental rights that too many in our community are struggling to maintain. I'll advocate for investment in community housing projects and better incentives to attract and retain essential workers like teachers and healthcare professionals. By addressing our key worker shortages, and infrastructure gaps, we can ensure everyone in Kiama has access to the basic services they deserve.
Powering the Future (Clean Energy, Local Jobs)
The energy transition presents a unique opportunity to create local jobs, reduce costs, and build a sustainable future for Kiama. I'll champion renewable energy projects that benefit our community while supporting local businesses and tradies to thrive in the new energy economy. With proper State support for energy-efficient upgrades, we can lower bills and create opportunities while protecting our environment for future generations.
Community Resilience (Disaster-Ready Communities)
Living through fires, floods, and the pandemic has shown us the importance of being prepared and supporting each other through tough times. I'll fight for better disaster preparedness funding, support local conservation projects that protect our natural assets, and strengthen the community programs that help us bounce back stronger. Building resilience means investing in both our infrastructure and our connections to each other.
Honest Leadership (People before Politics)
Our community deserves representation that puts local needs first, not party politics. As your independent voice, I'll bring transparency to decision-making, ensure community voices shape our priorities, and fight against misinformation in our political discourse. My track record shows I know how to bring people together and deliver results that matter.
Protecting What We Love (Environment and Local Character)
Kiama’s natural beauty—our beaches, forests, farmland and waterways—is part of who we are. So is the character of our towns, shaped by history, culture and community. I’ll back thoughtful development that listens to locals, respects Country and protects what matters—Aboriginal heritage, green spaces, native habitats, and the buildings and landmarks that tell our story. We can grow without losing what we love, and pass it on with pride to future generations.
