My real estate career commenced in 1994 after completing the mandatory industry salesperson certificate and then attending an intensive training course with a large real estate company.

I moved to Property Brokers in 1995 as a Residential/Lifestyle agent out of Feilding and was consistently one of the top comers in the company. I progressed on to Sales Manager of the Feilding branch and also continued to list and sell.

After 10 years at Property Brokers I became a business partner and opened a Harcourts branch in Feilding which went on to become a very successful regional office.

Over the years in the Manawatu I sold several thousand properties. I have continued my education in the industry and achieved my AREINZ status in 2007.

In 2011 I had a changed and moved across the Tasman to the Sunshine Coast in Queensland where I sold commercial property which was a great experience.However after owning a holiday home at the bottom end of Lake Taupo for Several years I really missed Taupo and all that it has to offer. It is great to be home.
