Hi, I'm Matthew Wright.
I am a lifetime South Australian who has grown up along our coastline, where I've spent time enjoying the outdoors. Those experiences shaped my love for the environment and the people who thrive in these communities. As an engineer with hands-on experience in the Australian manufacturing industry, I know the value of hard work and the importance of supporting local jobs. Having myself studied in Adelaide, I am passionate about ensuring South Australia remains a hub for innovation and opportunity.
I believe that the health of our community and its people is critical to building a prosperous future. I am committed to ensuring that manufacturing and industry in the region can continue to grow without compromising the wellbeing of workers, families, and our precious waterways.
Climate change is one of the most pressing challenges of our time, and I am determined to protect South Australia’s unique environment for future generations.
