Since 2015, I’ve fought hard to ensure Bayside community groups receive the funding, support and infrastructure they need to thrive. I’ve secured over 42 million dollars in grants for Lytton community groups, and supported countless critical projects including new lighting, upgraded playing services, and improved facilities. I’ve also secured:
- Thousands of dollars in cost-of-living relief for Bayside families.
- 20 percent off vehicle registration
- Created hundreds of jobs by supporting expansions to our local industries, and businesses, the Port of Brisbane, and the Bayside arts scene.
Since 2015, I’ve worked hard to reverse the LNP’s brutal cuts to local health services. I’ve:
- Restored primary healthcare facilities by delivering Wynnum Manly Community Health Centre, Gundu Pa.
- Delivered a new ambulance station for the Bayside.
- Supported the delivery of a new aged care facility -opening 2026-, with culturally-appropriate facilities for First Nations people.
Since 2015, I’ve fought hard to ensure the Bayside offers world-class educational opportunities to all young people. I’ve:
- Delivered a 34m dollar rebuild of Darling Point Special School.
- Delivered multi-million-dollar classroom upgrades for Manly State School and Wynnum State High School.
- Secured air conditioning for all Lytton state school classrooms.
- Delivered free kindy for all 4-year-olds.
I'm a committed local.
I’ve lived in our Bayside for over thirty years with my husband Peter, raising our two children.
During that time, I have been a committed volunteer for Nursing Mothers, the Wynnum BUGS Rugby Club, Bulimba Hockey and various local schools and kindergartens.
As a former small business owner, I know the importance of our hard-working small business community. I am currently the Shadow Minister for Small Business, Customer Service and Open Data.
I am grateful to be the patron of the Wynnum Manly Historical Association, the Wynnum Manly Yacht Club, the Bayside Woodturners and Woodcrafters Club, the Wynnum Choral Society and the Bayside Eastern District Orchid Society.
I care about our Bayside's future.
Equality of opportunity is important to me. I see the policy-making process as an important way to build a better future for all.
In the last decade, I’ve worked hard to deliver community services and infrastructure.
My achievements include the new Wynnum Manly Community Health Centre, the Ambulance Station in Wynnum West, the Lindum Station Accessibility Upgrade, Darling Point Special School and Manly State School Big Builds, and many more.
But there’s still more to do. I want to work to expand local health services, like publicly available dialysis and x-ray machines and ensure that major infrastructure projects like the Lindum Level Crossing Upgrade are completed.
Keep up to date.

Our Bayside is a great place to live, work and raise a family.
I will continue to work hard each and every day to
ensure it remains that way.
