Question time
Why should someone vote for you (in 140 characters or fewer)?

I'm a new face from outside politics. I'm experienced in driving change, for the better. I'll be accountable and transparent in everything I do.

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

It's a national election, but taking steps to make sure that people can save energy costs and avoid fuel poverty will help locally.

What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?

I plan to set up a forum to work out why the recovery has not reached some parts of Ireland, including a lot of Dublin 8,10, 12 and around.
