A Simply Gorgeous Family Home

A generous dining space opens through French doors to the private lawn and gardens. Alongside the dining area is the family lounge featuring deep recessed sash windows in the cob walls.

For "Outstanding Service Always "

I entered into a Real Estate career for many different reasons. For myself, I have always been in the business of meeting and working with people to achieve their goals and ambitions. Helping people find their dream property is something I take great pleasure in doing.

To me Real Estate is all about putting people first.

I provide a high level of service to my clients by keeping them constantly informed, and working with them to satisfy their needs in a fully professional manner.

Having worked in the education sector for 23 years; both as a teacher, and in management roles, has given me the skills of being a good listener, empathy with people and of course, a sound methodical approach.

Work with me and you have the back up of the successful team at Ray White Richmond.
In my leisure time I enjoy spending time with my wife Jackie, gardening, motorcycling, and spending time with friends.

Now that you know a little about me, I hope you will feel comfortable about us working together. I look forward to putting my skills to work to help you achieve your goals.

Outstanding Service "ALWAYS"

People enter Real Estate for many different reasons, but for myself, I started my career for the purpose of meeting and dealing with people, which I enjoy immensely. I have great pleasure in satisfying their requirements, whether it be selling their most valuable possession, or in finding them a suitable property.

You see to me, Real Estate is all about putting people first.

As a customer, I expect a high level of service, so I always endeavour to carry this out with my clients by keeping them constantly informed, and working with them to satisfy their needs in a fully professional manner, and achieving results.

I started Real Estate years 9 ago on the advice of a successful Real Estate Salesperson. From this time, I have enjoyed the challenges and goals I have set myself with results being achieved by gaining and receiving various awards including the 'Millionaires Club'. I'm a member of the very successful Ray White Stoke team.

There is without doubt, no greater pleasure then helping people to sell their property or finding for them, a house they are happy to call home. Many of my clients have also become good friends.

Away from work I enjoy being at home in my garden or being creative with my art work. Painting both oil and watercolour or garden sculpture are both a passion to me. My husband Greg and myself have a wonderful time on our motorbike.
