Vision Otago

Vision Otago

My principal place of residence is in the Dunstan Constituency area. I’ve lived most of my life in Otago, eventually settling in Wānaka, with my husband Jason, who runs a tourism business, and I work in commercial real estate.


Living in Central/Lakes, we all live in Paradise. But it is under threat – as much from poor governance and excessive rate demands (46% over past three years), as from terrestrial and aquatic pests, and declining water and lake standards. Fix the former, and we will fix the latter – which is why I’m standing with the Vision Otago team.


We have clear goals, detailed and effective policies, and an intent to improve our local environment. I’m a firm believer in creating partnerships and relationships, in open democracy, and empowering local communities. Our environment is our economy, and our home, and nothing less than the best leadership is required. For further details – please visit Vision Otago.
