Why would you like to be elected to the role(s) you are standing for?
I’m passionate about the Scottish Green Party’s principles, particularly its focus on social justice, climate action, and grassroots democracy. Contributing to the campaign and election efforts will allow me to help turn these values into tangible political progress in Scotland.
I want to help strengthen our local presence, increase voter engagement, and support Green candidates in Edinburgh. A successful campaign will bring lasting benefits to our communities, from better active travel infrastructure to more equitable housing policy.
What skills, knowledge and life experience would you bring to the role(s) you are standing for?
I will bring project management, communication & strategy devlelopment skills from my work experience as a water process engineer, business developer and people manager & enthusiasm to my preferred role as Ordinary Member in the Elections and Campaigns Group. I supported Amanda Grimm's Westminister campaign in 2024 project managing the Green's presence at the Climate festival, canvassing, leaflet delivery, supporting the sub branch efforts, coordination of A-Board preparation & distribution and attendence at hustings.
