A practical, thoughtful approach to community leadership.
I believe strong communities are built when people listen to one another, work together, and take responsibility for the decisions they make.
Throughout my career, I’ve brought people together, strengthened organizations, and helped turn ideas into practical action.
I’m running because I want to contribute to a Hamilton where residents feel heard, neighbourhoods thrive, and our City works for everyone.
I have called Hamilton home since 1998 and have built my career and community connections here through education, professional work, volunteering, and service with local organizations.
My approach is simple: listen first, understand the context, bring people together, and work toward practical solutions that reflect the needs of the community.
My values align with your values.
Hamilton is growing and changing. We need thoughtful, responsible decisions that address today's needs while preparing for the future.
Protect what we have.
Take care of the neighbourhoods, parks, roads, sidewalks and community spaces that make Ward 7 home.
Plan for growth.
Make thoughtful decisions about growth, infrastructure and the future of Hamilton.
Make City services work.
Focus on reliable, accessible services that residents can depend on every day.
Listen. Represent. Deliver.
Stay connected to residents, communicate clearly, and be accountable for results.

CHCH NEWS →Who do I endorse in the municipal election?
As someone who believes in the value of public education and the role schools play in building strong communities for everyone, not just for youth, I am pleased to endorse Seth Floyd for English Public School Board Trustee in Ward 7.
Seth brings a thoughtful, community-minded approach, a commitment to equity and inclusion, and a genuine willingness to listen and learn. His experience in community advocacy and his interest in student well-being, outdoor learning and responsible technology use offer valuable perspectives for our public schools. Throughout his campaign, he has maintain and even increased his impact within the community, not as a show for his campaign, but simply because he is compelled to do so.
I fully trust in Seth's abilities to make a meaningful contribution as a trustee and to advocate for students, families and educators. I look forward to the opportunity to work together in our respective roles to help build a stronger community for Ward 7, and I happily endorse Seth in his candidacy.
