Meet Ken

Hi my name is Ken, and this is why I am running for Ward 6:

I am an urban designer and University of Guelph alumnus.

Having lived and worked in both Canada and the United States, my professional and lived experiences have always been centred around communities.

After living in Guelph for the last seven years, it is clear more than ever, we need compassion, perspective, and vision to bring consensus leadership to City Hall.

It is an incredible honour and responsibility to be running for Council. I look forward to attracting new voters and building a big tent grassroots coalition that will power our bold initiatives like never seen before in Ward 6.

I hear your concerns and together we will mobilize the community to work as an equal partner in City Hall. I want us to move forward, rise above our current politics and see our city of untapped potential thrive.

Thank you, Ward 6!
