About

As a father and small business owner I understand the impact of political decisions and know the kind of leadership we need. Members of my family involved in farming and medicine reinforced what I know is important for healthy and sustainable rural and regional communities.

The Greens have integrity, tackle the issues that matter and share my values. Values which are common throughout our communities.

People want leadership and common sense, not populism and poll-driven policy.

People want courage and conviction, not career politicians who only represent the big end of town.

People want priority given to our long term interests, from local needs to National and Global responsibilities.

People want a vibrant, healthy and prosperous economy that recognises the limits of a finite planet.
