Living and working in Farrer, Ms Pearson said she “sees, every day, where the system is falling short” and understands the pressures facing local communities.
Working in the world of healthcare and with a background in oncology, she is most concerned about the accessibility of care for residents.
“People shouldn’t have to wait months or travel long distances just to access basic healthcare,” she said.
Aside from healthcare, Ms Pearson is focusing on supporting local businesses, tackling housing pressures, improving infrastructure and services across border communities, fighting for fair water policies and fixing cannabis laws.
