PAST POLITICAL EXPERIENCE:

In my capacity as a leader in Guelph, I consistently work across all levels of government to manage the many projects I have brought to fruition for our community. I decided to enter politics now because I'm ready to apply my leadership skills to amplify Guelph's voice at Queen's Park.

HOW WOULD YOU GRADE THE PROVINCE'S COVID-19 RESPONSE AND WHY?: D

On March 11, 2020, the eve of the pandemic, I was at Queen's Park, watching leaders fight over the fact that there was no plan. It was true then, and it's true today. We need a government that is capable of implementing real action to get us through to recovery.

IF ELECTED, I PLEDGE ... I'm proud to plan and implement change with my community, and I'm ready to restore Guelph's Liberal seat at the provincial table so we can have meaningful, responsive influence and impact for Guelph.
