It's all about the balance.
Productive land and healthy water ways are both essential to our lifestyle.
I've seen a lot of the world but choose to live in the Eastern Bay of Plenty. It's home. My livelihood comes from the land; hunting, fishing, kayaking and biking are among my pleasures.
I am a community minded person : Past Chair of Edgecumbe Primary B.O.T., Past V.P. Theatre Whakatane, Currently W.D.C. Councillor, Director Edgecumbe Lions, V.P. Eastern Bay Tri & Multisport Club.
Community highlights include initiating the Rangitaiki River Fesitval, and establishing Te Onepu wetland.
Personal challenges: Speights Coast to Coast, Motu Challenge, King of the Mountain, Monty's Revenge, Whale Island Swim.
I believe my track record demonstrates, I will be a positive and pro−active Eastern Bay representative, on the Regional Council.
I'd appreciate your support.
