as a City Planner I believe the Council has not played its due role in executing the 2 most important rule book -The Official Community Plan and the Land Use Bylaw as such the city is uninhabitable.

I am running for Burnaby City Council as an Independent Liberal to bring experience, community commitment, and leadership to our growing city.
As a City Planner and former Board of Variance Member, I understand challenges in the development of Burnaby and importance of municipal decision-making.
My objective is to improve the planning process through a universally adaptable and improved Official Community Plan and Land use By Laws, reduce approval time, for Building Permits, find meaningful public consultation, ensure residents have a stronger voice in decision making affecting their communities.
I will fight for improved health-care services so Burnaby residents can access timely care close to home.
Advocate for Social Housing for low-income residents, families, and seniors
I believe every resident deserves to feel safe. I will support effective crime-prevention initiatives for a stronger community. to improve public safety.
Please vote for me for a stronger, safer, inclusive Burnaby.
