about me

I have lived in Adelaide my whole life and love all the areas to explore in the greater South Australian regions. I have previously worked in the Retirement Strategies financial planning business for the past 18 months and love the knowledge I have gained from helping our clients. I'm an avid (not good) golfer and love getting outside to soak up all the elements of the Adelaide weather.

What do you enjoy most about wealth management?
I enjoy being part of the process that can change someone's life for the better. The reassurance that the client receives knowing that they're in the right hands, is incredibly valuable. I also love the idea of the client expanding their financial knowledge to pass on to the next generation.

What quality of yours makes you best suited to what you do?
I like to think that I'm an organised person, which certainly benefits me with the plethora of information that makes up the wealth management space.

What would you be doing if you weren't working in wealth management?
I would love to be a food critic. Sometimes I can overindulge, so it would be a perk to be compensated for it.

What do you love to do outside of work?
When I'm outside of work I love to get out to my local golf course (rain, hail, or shine), and have a hit. I love the challenge of golf, as it's something you can never truly master.

What personal accomplishments are you most proud of?
Hitting my first ever hole in one at West Beach golf course. I thought the day would never come.

What's the most influential book you've read?
Atomic Habits by James CLear. This book helped me put things into perspective and discussed how little changes in your routine can have a flow-on effect to the bigger picture..
