In my early years I started and operated a Wellington business for ten years with proven financial stewardship skills that allowed me to retire early to Taupo.
Since then I have served as a Taupo District Councilor for 2 terms and became a certified Resource Management Act Commissioner adjudicating on hearings within the Taupo District with a priority for positive environmental outcomes.
My grandchildren attend Waipahihi School where I also serve on the Board of Trustees.
I’m a dedicated volunteer and a fully qualified Cycle Skills instructor. I teach young school children throughout the district, including Turangi, Kuratau and Mangakino on how to ride bicycles and then when they are older on how to be safe while riding on our roads.

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
