I am truly proud of my Wiradjuri heritage. My culture is a cornerstone of who I am, shaping my values and guiding my commitment to making a positive impact in our community. As an Aboriginal man, I continue to learn the traditions and wisdom of my ancestors, ensuring that their legacy lives on and our cultural practices are passed on to the next generation.

By running as a Candidate for Yerrabi in the upcoming ACT Election, I aim to bridge gaps, advocate for equitable solutions, and ensure that all voices are heard and valued. My commitment is to serve with empathy, dedication, and a relentless pursuit of a more inclusive and supportive society.

61.3% of Canberran’s supported the Voice Referendum! I want to be a Voice not only for Aboriginal people but for the everyday Aussie family in need of support. I believe in fostering a community where everyone, regardless of background, has access to proper basic health care and improving the housing crisis.

I’m a loving husband and a proud dad to two beautiful daughters, both born on Country. We strive to set an example of integrity and compassion to them, values that I hope to bring to the Legislative Assembly.

I stand to celebrate First Nations Peoples Culture, Story Telling and Language preserved through literacy programs. Everyone deserves the right start to a good education. I was a 15-year-old boy from a small country town when I was accepted for a scholarship to Knox Grammar School in Sydney. This paved a crucial pathway for me and my education. An opportunity I want for my own daughters and all Indigenous kids.

Like you, I’m impacted by the political decisions made in parliament that has significant pressure on our daily lives. I am deeply concerned about the challenges posed by the rising cost of living, escalating housing market, and inadequate cost and wait times for healthcare services. I am committed to addressing these issues effectively and bringing about real improvements. If you are frustrated with the lack of meaningful action from our current leaders, then vote for change, Vote 1 Cooper Pike. I am dedicated to driving real, actionable change.
