Are you a first time candidate? Yes 

What are your reasons for running as a young person in politics?

As a young candidate, I know the concerns of so many young people and their families in Ireland today. Youth involvement in Irish politics has moved our country forward. We now are leading the social changes that are making Ireland into a modern, representative, and reflective 21st-century country. I want this to continue. I am committed to being part of it.

I believe we deserve good and positive representation on Kildare County Council. For our area to benefit from the Local Property Tax we all pay, for our community to be clean and safe. And for Naas, Ballymore Eustace, Sallins, Eadestown, Rathmore, Kill, Kilteel, and Mullacash to develop and grow in a sustainable way that allows both people and businesses to thrive long into the future.
