Jo began marketing real estate in 1994 and continues to enjoy the challenges. Her success can be attributed to the down to earth approach to real estate. Put simply – she “walks the walk and talks the talk”. Jo supports the Waipawa School, recognising students with several book awards and School Scholarships. These awards are given at the end of the year prize giving to the students nominated by the teachers for their “positive attitude” in the school environment. Also Jo is a keen horse rider and sponsors equestrian events to raise money for St Johns, Hawkes Bay Rescue helicopters and the Smedley Trek for the Cancer Society. “I feel privileged to be living in the great surrounds of Central Hawke's Bay, the people, the landscape and the growth is what makes this location an exciting and wonderful place to market Real Estate.”
