My mission is to enhance the quality of life for all residents and preserve the core values that make Richmond Hill feel like home. 

The 4 Pillars.

Innovation.

Ward 6 has the potential to become Richmond Hill’s Innovation Hub—a place that attracts new businesses, supports existing ones, creates jobs, and encourages investment in emerging and growing industries.

By exploring incentives, partnerships, and other economic development tools within the City’s jurisdiction, we can encourage businesses to establish, expand, and invest in Richmond Hill. In return, participating companies would be invited to invest in our community by creating meaningful opportunities for youth and young adults through mentorship, industry experience, internships, apprenticeships, and employment pathways.

I see Ward 6 as a place where businesses grow, talent develops, and investment creates opportunities for the entire community.

Youth.

Our youth should have a meaningful voice in shaping the city they will inherit. Richmond Hill should be a place where they choose to build their careers and one day raise families of their own.

I want to connect with our youth, hear their ideas, and involve them directly in our city’s growth. The time has come to recognize that we need their perspective at the table—and the courage to act on their vision.

Building on Richmond Hill’s existing Youth Action Committee, I want to explore creating a broader Youth Council Advisory Program that gives youth and young adults direct exposure to municipal decision-making and a meaningful voice in shaping our city’s future.

That could mean attracting more appealing jobs and industries, supporting entrepreneurship and mentorship, creating more spaces and experiences for young people, and giving them meaningful opportunities to participate in shaping the city they will one day lead.

A future worth coming home to.

Smart Growth.

Richmond Hill is growing, and growth brings opportunity. New development can create housing, attract investment, support local businesses, and strengthen our economy. But the success of a growing city should not be measured only by how much we build. It should be measured by the quality of life we create alongside it.

Development must be supported by the infrastructure and services our growing population needs. That means planning for transportation and traffic, healthcare, schools, emergency services, parks and green spaces, community safety, and the long-term impact of development on existing neighbourhoods.

Smart growth means looking beyond one development at a time and asking a bigger question:

Can our infrastructure, services, and communities keep pace with the city we are building?

Growth should improve our city, not overwhelm it.

Vibrant Communities.

Richmond Hill should be more than a place we live—it should be a city we experience. Too often, residents leave our city to find entertainment, cultural experiences, social spaces, and destinations that bring people together, taking both their time and spending elsewhere.

I want to explore how we can create more reasons for people to stay, gather, and participate locally by supporting entertainment destinations, arts and cultural experiences, community events, local businesses, public gathering spaces, and year-round activities for different ages and interests.

Vibrant communities also create economic opportunity. When people spend more time in their own city, local businesses benefit, new businesses have a reason to invest, jobs are created, and stronger local destinations can attract visitors from outside Richmond Hill.

The goal is not simply to create more events.

It is to build a city with energy, identity, and experiences that make people want to participate in the life of their community.

A great city isn’t just where people come to sleep.
It’s where they connect, participate, and belong.
