As the new MP for Banks Peninsula, I’ll be always highly accessible, visible, and focused on the issues that matter to our community. My focus is to support residents and to secure positive results for my electorate. I am committed to implementing National’s values of delivering effective change to my electorate.

Now that my office is open, I am looking at ways to strengthen neighbouring communities and to enable a better working local economy.

I am excited to work on the behalf of the Banks Peninsula community, and to continue improving this slice of paradise which I proudly call home.
