Candidiate Background:
Why I’m Running:
As I was preparing to vote for the first time I realised something truly disappointing.I had seen ad after ad within which few policies were praised but opposing candidates and parties were condemned as unfit to govern. This was really discouraging as it created a sense that there wasn’t a single candidate in my seat who truly represented my interests and the interests of my peers, only career politicians concerned with fear-mongering about the worst case scenarios. These suggestions included perceived threats of stagnation (i. e. the maintaining of a status quo that few are benefitting from), increased antisemitism from politicians and declining healthcare and education standards while the prices for services increased. My goal is to remind voters that they are not bound to vote only for big established parties and career politicians but that democracy is for everyone. This means everyone gets a fair go and if they mess it up we see real change.
Who am I:
I am a (soon to be) VCE graduate who has lived my entire life in the electoral district of Caulfield and whose family has lived around this area for over a century. I am passionate about Education, the Arts and civil involvement particularly in terms of encouraging young people to be aware of and participate in political discourse.
I am an actor, musician and composer. I have been involved with various ensembles, musicals and plays including recieving the Lyrebird award for Best Cameo in 2024.
I have experience in community leadership including my time as a synagogue board member, a Diller Teen Fellow and as an apprentice youth councillor for Hineni Youth and Welfare Australia.
