I am a 34 year old entrepreneur with 3 small businesses in various stages of operation. I am running to be re-elected for my second term as Councillor for the Municipality of Meaford. I firmly believe that our community’s future prosperity is dependent upon our ability to attract outside investment and to leverage our economic strengths in creating a much more diverse value added export stream for agricultural goods and tourism experiences that lend themselves to those new sources of investment revenue.

I am running to help our community be seen as a good place to start and grow your business and live, where best practices, strategic partnerships and collaborative approaches help us to be more cost effective and improve services to meet our growing community needs.

As councillor, I will continue to be involved in engaging and working with community members to co-create a sustainable and prosperous Municipality of Meaford. I will ensure that residents are paying a fair amount of taxes and getting the best benefit from them and ensure that our economy is developed in an ecologically responsible way that creates sustainable jobs.

First of all, tell us a little about your background and overall platform in 100 words or less. My wife and I own and operate Red Hills Bed and Breakfast and I am the founder and director of our area association ABBBE.com (A Better Bed and Breakfast Experience.) I started this association three years ago […]

People in this community have asked me to run virtually every day since the last election. I understand that people’s pockets are not bottomless. I will ensure all residents can afford to live here and I would like them to be able to work here too. We need to create an environment in which the public is served by an open, accessible and accountable Council and Administration. I want to be a mayor that listens, understands and works together with citizens to achieve successes in our community.

I am a wife. Mother, grandmother, great grandmother, certified reflexologist, massage practitioner. I am self-employed and had a store front business for 4 years in downtown Meaford.
