Having completed a Business degree majoring in Property, I joined Barfoot & Thompson in 2001, and successfully sold residential properties for five years prior to having a family. I then utilised my business and marketing skills to set up an online retail venture harnessing the power of social media and e-commerce tools. Combining the online business expertise with a love of real estate, coupled with the hands-on experience of buying and selling my own properties in central Auckland, I returned to the world of real estate with renewed enthusiasm. My husband Paul and I have three children and we are both passionate about family, people and community. I am a Board of Trustee member of Baradene College, actively support many local schools as well as other charities close to our heart like Starship Children's Hospital. Barfoot & Thompson is truly part of our family. My Mum Jean Smith is a branch manager with over 40 years’ experience and a proud inductee in the Hall of Fame and my brother Craig is also a branch manager. I am an open and honest communicator always ensuring my clients best interests are at the heart of my work. If you are looking for a salesperson to come with you on the journey of selling your home, someone who understands the 24/7 online and social media world, who will care about you and your outcomes, then I am the one for you.
