With more than 25 years in the mortgage and financial services industry, I bring deep knowledge and experience to every client relationship. Over the years, I’ve successfully navigated the constant changes in lending criteria, interest rate cycles, and regulatory shifts — ensuring my clients always receive strategies that are relevant, practical, and future-focused.

My work extends beyond individual client advice. I have proudly served on numerous industry boards and advisory groups throughout my career, contributing to the broader direction of the mortgage and financial sector in New Zealand. These roles have given me unique insights into banking policy, compliance requirements, and emerging trends — all of which directly benefit the people I work with.

Because I have access to all major banks and non-bank lenders, my service is not tied to any single institution. Instead, I focus on what matters most: providing tailored solutions that give you the best possible advantage to achieve your property and financial goals.

Outside of work, I’m a proud mum and grandmother — which often sees me heading “over the hill” to Nelson to spend time with family. That balance of family life and professional commitment is at the heart of everything I do: helping people create security and opportunities for the ones they love.
