Local resident of 17 years, well connected, actively involved, with the passion, drive & skills to do the job

I have nominated to run for Council for the GOLDEN SQUARE Ward in the City of Greater Bendigo electorate.

As a proud & active Golden Square resident of 17 years, I am deeply committed to this community’s wellbeing & future.

My family & I have volunteered for & supported many local activities. This includes the local school, footy club, community pool, fire services, neighbourhood hub & more.

My passion grew this year with involvement in the Golden Square Action Group which I helped start. We set this up to strengthen connections, understand community needs & empower local solutions.

I wasn't planning to run at first, but I believe it is important to have good representation. Someone who is well connected & actively involved, so they can understand what's wanted & needed & advocate accordingly.

I'll be sharing updates on this page as we go. Please feel free to reach out to let me know what's important to you.

If you're not from Bendigo or the Golden Square Ward, please still stay connected. All offers of encouragement & support are always welcome!

Why I am running for Council...

I want to ensure the voices of Golden Square electorate, including Quarry Hill & Golden Gully, are heard & respected.

I am dedicated to advocating for the changes our community wants & needs, drawing on my years of experience in community development & leadership. This includes:

  • revitalising our precincts

  • supporting our local businesses

  • enhancing access, walkability, & safety

  • improving our recreation reserves to meet the needs of all users

Together, we can build a stronger, more connected, & vibrant community!

What skills I bring…

I have a background in environmental engineering & have led many sustainability initiatives. I lead a charity that supports communities & rural towns. I’m also a director on a health board & my husband & I own a small business while raising our two teenage boys. These experiences give me a well-rounded view of our community's challenges, plus the ability to problem solve & develop new approaches.
