About Walt

I’m a farmer, business owner, and community advocate based here in Waikato.

Like many families in this region, I understand what it means to work hard, take risks, and deal with decisions made far away by people who don’t live with the consequences.

I’m standing as an independent because I believe Waikato deserves a strong local voice — one that isn’t controlled by party headquarters, party whips, or political deals.

I believe in hard work, personal responsibility, opportunity for all, and a government that lives within its means.

I’m not entering politics for a career.

I’m entering politics to do the job properly.
