I am an enthusiastic sales professional who has dedicated more than 40 years to a range of Australian industries, associations, professional groups, and community organisations. From a career perspective, this has included direct sales roles and the management of both office staff and a large sales team of a major multi-national insurance company.

  In 2006, I entered the real estate field for the first time, working on a commission-only basis as a sales agent with a long-established and respected Gold Coast agency. My entire focus was on securing residential property listings in a dedicated geographical area, servicing the vendors of those properties, and among other specialised marketing obligations – hosting open homes on their behalf to find buyers … with the objective of achieving property sales. During the next 18 months of collaboration with this firm and other sales agents, I learned a great deal about real estate, and enjoyed considerable success in my newly adopted sales role. Moreover, I was able to assist owners wanting to sell their properties and buyers who were seeking to acquire them. This was a great grounding for me in the industry and set me up to move on with my new career, and my life in general.
 
I was invited to join a larger, well-known Gold Coast agency and spent the next two years doing much of the same – but with a greater emphasis on sales by auction. This, along with access to more high-end properties and apartments, allowed me to grow into the industry … in what now appears to have been a natural progression. The following year, I accepted a sales role with a leading Gold Coast commercial agency and thereafter ...  an acreage sales role on the Gold Coast. In 2021, I secured my full real estate agent's Licence and launched my own independent and Exclusive buyer’s agency - as a startup.
