Jerry is a qualified craftsman joiner, small-business owner, and proud Manawatū local.

He co-owns a joinery and building company and manages a frame-and-truss plant, leading complex prefabrication projects and working directly with clients and contractors every day. With a background in account management and sales across the building-materials industry, Jerry understands how to get things done and keep projects moving.

A father of three, Jerry knows the pressures local families and businesses face, from rising costs to council red tape, and wants to bring practical experience and common sense to local decision-making.
