Christchurch Central: Greg Kleis

Age: 61

Education: B.A. in political science; M.A. child psychology, education for mental challenged kids; primary education training in Montessori education; doctor degree in chiropractic, D.C.

Employment: mental health worker; primary school teacher; self-employed as a chiropractor for 27 years.

Experience: I have been working with social justice and environmental groups since I was at University, which was a few years ago. While teaching in Arkansas, 30 years ago, I worked with the state government on an interagency council dealing with funding for state wide projects.

Why I’m a candidate?: My journey through life has centred around a concern and interest in both human and planetary well-being.
Over the years, working as a health care provider, I have found that the more an individual is able to have an integrated relationship, based on participating at multi levels, whether that implies home, work or social, then the happier and healthier they become.
On a national level such a thought would be implemented as a social partnership in process, respect for referendums, and transparency in decision making.
I share the Alliance Party’s realization of compassion for these concepts both for the present and future generations, which is why I am putting my name forward as a Alliance candidate.
