Hi I’m Tomas 

I’m a transport and land use planner, community advocate and former Deputy Mayor of Manningham. I started off my working life as a gymnastics coach in a local sporting club before working as a lifeguard and finally landing in urban planning, which I’ve also taught at Melbourne Uni. I care deeply about Bulleen’s future, unfortunately, our interests have been neglected, with key opportunities for growth and sustainability such as Doncaster Rail being passed up. The Greens are fighting for policies that will address public transport, climate change and cost of living. 

As a former Deputy Mayor, I worked hard to ensure our local government was prioritising better public infrastructure, protecting parks and open spaces for our communities to thrive in, and planning for a sustainable future that you and your children can afford. 

This state election, I’m campaigning to represent Bulleen to ensure our diverse voices are heard and we build a future that is inclusive, sustainable and fair.
