Home is where the heart is – I’m extremely proud to say I was born in the Papakura Maternity Hospital as was my husband Greg and our children. I attended the local schools of Papakura Intermediate and Papakura High School and then I went on to attend Auckland University as an adult student where I studied Business with a strong focus on Marketing. My career has been sales and marketing based both in public and private companies. I spent many years in the food industry before moving to work in our family business. After we sold the business, I spent the next ten years working in various roles within the Papakura and Auckland Council, which has given me an accurate understanding of how things work from a planning and building perspective, so you could say I have a strong sense of community having done years of volunteer work for Canteen, Crime Watch, The Karaka Women’s Institute and currently I am on the ‘Executive’ of the Papakura Business Association. I have bought and sold a number of properties over the years both residential and commercial within the Papakura and Franklin areas. I know the area extremely well and I am confident that I have the attributes, professional knowledge and marketing skill set to achieve the best possible result for you and your family. I look forward to having the opportunity to discuss the marketing of your home.
