Having lived here for most of my life, I have been very involved in the local community including being part of the South Canterbury Racing Committee’s five founding Trustees of the Phar Lap Statue - being instrumental in overseeing the creation of the statue, fountain and plaques at the Phar Lap Raceway. I am also highly involved with my six grandchildren’s lives; having coached one granddaughters netball team for Mountain View High School and another granddaughters ‘T’ Ball team for Grantlea Downs Primary. I am also a member of Timaru U3A Club and the Timaru Bridge Club where I have been a member for a number of years. Being an active salesperson and being involved in the community is something I take great pride in, this comes from my previous working background which included working for thirteen years with the New Zealand Police here in South Canterbury on the front line as a Constable and also as a Police Instructor at the New Zealand Police Academy in Porirua, Wellington. I have also had experience in owning and operating businesses ranging from Landscaping, Aluminium here in Timaru and a Courier business on the Sunshine Coast in Australia. I have been in the Real Estate industry since the early 2000’s, and have a proven record of assisting in numerous residential sales in South Canterbury including several lifestyle properties. I would describe myself as “an experienced professional that gives consistent, dependable performance with results that come from well-planned profile advertising and great marketing solutions for all types of properties”.
