Keri was born and raised in Kaitaia, leaving the area to complete a Bachelor of Commerce Degree at Auckland University specialising in Marketing & Management.   She worked in sales and marketing with well-known global brands in the FMCG industry.  A desire for a lifestyle change saw Keri returning to the Far North in 2003 and commencing her real estate career.  

Keri’s marketing skills and great customer service led to multiple Real Estate awards including REINZ Rookie of the Year, International Best New Talent and Nationwide Best Business Growth.  After taking a break to have a family, Keri returned to Real Estate at the beginning of 2016 and quickly re-established her successful business qualifying as a Ray White Premier Agent after just 10 months from her return and a Ray White Elite agent in her second year back to the industry.  

Now Keri’s family is older and with great support at home, she is excited to be back and likens real estate to putting pieces of puzzles together, matching buyers and vendors’ needs.  She likes to take the time to understand her customers whether buying or selling. Keri is conditioned to going the extra mile, working hard and productively to achieve results in whatever she does.  

Outside of work Keri is actively involved with Rugby, she is always supporting and developing opportunities for Junior & IMB Rugby for the kids in the Far North.  She is a dedicated member of the Kaitaia Rugby Club, Rep coordinator for Mangonui JMB Rugby and also is a board member on the Northland Rugby Junior Council.  Keri is also a trustee member of the Te Ahu Trust seeing her role as a privilege to join an incredible group of local professionals as the kaitiaki of Kaitaia's beautiful Te Ahu Community Centre - home of our town's Museum, Library, Cinema, i-Site and Cafe.

Family time is a priority so when she does find time to relax, they love to travel or spend time at the beach - especially fishing with the 90 Mile Beach Surfcasting Club.
