For eleven years, downtown London has been home — where I live, walk, shop, work, talk with neighbours, and experience the consequences of public decisions in real time. Ward 13 isn’t somewhere I discovered during an election.
Start Here · The 2-Minute Version
Who I am. What I see. How I would work.
Downtown resident. Ward 13 candidate. I have lived downtown for eleven years. This page is the quickest way to understand the campaign: why I am running, what I would focus on, how I understand the authority of the office, and the standard I would use to report back.
Start here for why I’m running, what I would push for, and how I would report back to Ward 13.

Why I’m running
I live with the decisions.I want the work to be easier to see and easier to check.
I have watched strong ideas lose momentum, temporary problems become permanent, and public announcements arrive long before residents can see what changed. That is why so much of this campaign is built around dates, authority, follow-through and a public record.
One councillor cannot control every outcome. A councillor can bring motions, request reports, challenge decisions, propose budget changes, build support, vote, track implementation, and report back. The ward work matters, and so do the city-wide budgets, services and policy decisions that come before Council.

How I’d approach the work
Start with the issue.Bring forward an action.Report what happened.
The point is to make the work understandable without making you read the whole research file first.
Start with the problem residents are actually living with, separate municipal responsibility from what belongs to another government or agency, and be clear about the evidence.
That may be a motion, a report request, a budget decision, a bylaw change, an audit, or sustained pressure for implementation. The point is to move from concern to a specific municipal action.
If it passes, track the work. If it fails, say why. If implementation stalls, identify the barrier. The result matters more than the announcement.
This page is the overview. The Plan shows the operating program. Where I Stand answers specific live questions. Vision 2026–2030 holds the future-facing proposals. Commitments and If Elected show what is on the record and what starts first.
