About

About Steven

I am a Richmond resident who has proudly called the city home for the past 26 years. I work in the auto finance industry and am actively involved in the community as a former strata council Vice President, elementary basketball coach, and basketball referee.

I am passionate about building a safe, prosperous, and vibrant Richmond. Through my volunteer work and community involvement, I have developed a strong understanding of the issues that matter most to local residents and families.

I believe City Hall should focus on practical solutions, strong neighbourhoods, and responsible leadership that puts Richmond first. I also believe our children are our future, and city resources should be invested in programs, facilities, and opportunities that help them thrive.

Priorities

My Priorities

Key commitments for a stronger Richmond.

02

Support for Local Business

Supporting local businesses by reducing unnecessary delays and red tape, so our local economy can grow and thrive.

03

Responsible Spending

Ensuring taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly on services and infrastructure that directly benefit Richmond residents.

04

Investing in Our Children

Our children are our future. City resources should be invested in programs, facilities, and opportunities that help them thrive.
