A bit about me professionally..

I started financial planning in 2007, but have worked in financial services since 1998.

I particularly enjoy working with clients in the pre-retirement phase – so if you’re planning to retire in the next five to 10 years, I’d love to help you get there.

Together, we can develop strategies to help build your super, eliminate any personal debt you may have, and importantly, start to think about what you would like your retirement to look like.

Then, once that retirement milestone is reached, we’ll keep working together to ensure your cashflow can provide you with the lifestyle you’ve been looking forward to enjoying.

Your retirement income may be generated from your personal investments, Centrelink benefits or a combination of both.  And if you’re eligible for a Centrelink benefit (such as the Age Pension), I’m more than happy to assist you with this process, since it can be complicated and overwhelming.  My aim is to make things simple and calm for you.

I can also assist clients who are interested in investing sustainably, as I understand that this is an important consideration for many clients; particularly now that more ESG investment opportunities are becoming available.

I would like to think that the two words my client would say best describe me are: compassionate and caring.

A bit about me personally…

I have two gorgeous young children, so much of my time away from the office is spent with them.

My hobbies include cooking delicious meals – especially when it’s with food I’ve grown in my own edible garden. 

I’m also a photographer, specialising in children’s and family portraits.

In the decade leading up to the COVID pandemic, industry superannuation fund executives became fond of boasting about capitalising on the so-called “illiquidity premium” derived from tying up member’s assets in long-dated, illiquid assets, namely unlisted property and infrastructure.
I recently gave a speech to the Unley Rotary Club on Cybersecurity and awareness of financial scams; the audience had some fantastic follow up questions and many more than I expected. The interesting outcome for me from that presentation was the audience’s sheer diversity of understanding of what scams exist, how they affect people and what someone can do to avoid those risks. Some were genuinely shocked, others apathetic; It won’t happen to me, I’m not affected as I don’t use Facebook, what can I really do to stop it…?
Millions of Australians have (or are about to) receive their first pay packet for the 2024-25 financial year, and it should contain some extra cash.
