Born and raised in Richmond, she built her first home in Brighton and has spent most of her life in the communities of South-East Tasmania.
Before her election in 2018, Jane established her own successful small business based in Brighton.
Jane’s experience growing up on a farm and working in small business taught her the value of hard work and giving back to the community.
Her father, Colin Howlett, served as a long-term and dedicated Mayor of the Southern Midlands.
Jane is committed to serving the communities of the Midlands, East Coast and South-East Tasmania and is working to ensure that everyone has access to affordable housing, quality healthcare and education, and employment opportunities.
She wants Tasmania to be a place where families can thrive and continue to enjoy our fantastic way of life.
Jane is married to Sergei and has two children, Dimitri and Penelope.
