I started in Banking with Westpac in 2006 working my way up to Relationship Manager within the Premium section of the bank which focused on building relationships with the bank's high-net-worth clients. I moved into Mortgage Broking in 2015 with Mortgage Choice in Ashgrove before moving across to Loan Market in late 2022. As a Mortgage Broker, I bring my passion and years of industry experience - rather than having one lender's option, I thrive with the huge choice that a broker can access. I love the fact that, in the broker space, I have far more choices and solutions for clients than just one bank's products and policy. I can solve more problems and deliver better outcomes to more people than I ever could at a bank.
Fueled by a genuine passion for connecting with people and a firm commitment to delivering exceptional service, I bring a customer-centric approach to each interaction. My aim is to ensure that every client not only receives attentive support but also feels genuinely heard and valued throughout their journey.

I have been dealing with Banks, Real Estate Agents and Solicitors both personally and professionally for many years. I pride myself on attention to detail and will ensure your application is followed through in a timely manner.
