Why I'm Running
I love where I live and it pains me to see something wonderful fraying at the edges.
Ward 15 is one of the most desirable places to live in the City of Hamilton. Yet most residents feel overtaxed and overlooked. We see our tax dollars going to solve problems in downtown Hamilton, problems that have nothing to do with life in Ward 15.
We see it every day:
- Roads and infrastructure not keeping up
- Stalled construction and neglected spaces
- Limited police presence and public safety concerns
- A lack of investment in recreation, parks, and services for families
This isn’t about asking for more than our share. It’s about finally getting our fair share.
Tell me your concerns and I will bring them to City Hall.
What I'm Fighting For
I will work hard to get our property taxes under control
- Perform a complete review of the City Budget to find wasteful spending
- Focus on essential services, necessary infrastructure, and required social spending
- Cut onerous red tape to attract and facilitate commercial development
Our Communities will thrive when we:
- Ensure efficient emergency services
- Increase police presence to protect our property and keep our roads safe
- Fix our roads, finish our sidewalks and build our playgrounds in a timely manner
Our Residents will thrive when we:
- Provide affordable services at a Community Recreation Centre in an accessible location
- Maintain the character of our communities and think of our residents when planning for growth
- Rezone available areas for businesses that will bring high-paying jobs to our doorstep

Values & Leadership
My faith is the core of who I am. It guides how I treat people: with honesty, humility, and respect.
I believe in:
- Taking responsibility and admitting mistakes
- Listening first, then acting
- Standing up when something isn’t right
- Bringing people together to solve problems
I will fight for everyone in this Ward, regardless of personal politics or who they voted for.
