What do you enjoy most about serving the community?  Being able to give something back to the community and help to shape Ashburton’s future.

What’s one issue you’d encourage residents to get involved in: I would encourage members of the public to have their voices heard about the assets transfer from Teignbridge and global warming issues.

A fun fact about yourself:  I am a very keen vegetable gardener & love doing my own hanging baskets. I also have 2 ferrets called Alvin & Susy!
