I love knowing that the work I do helps make a positive difference in people’s lives. One of the most rewarding parts of my role is seeing clients realise they may be in a stronger financial position than they thought, with the opportunity to retire earlier, spend more time with family or enjoy trips they never imagined they could afford.

I particularly enjoy the moments when clients come to us feeling worried or overwhelmed and leave feeling relieved and confident about their future. One memorable example was a client who believed retirement was still a long way off. After talking through their circumstances with their adviser, they discovered they were in a much better position than they had expected. Seeing the weight lift from their shoulders and hearing them excitedly talk about spending more time with family and travelling was a wonderful reminder of why I love what I do.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my family, going to the gym, camping and heading to the beach. As a mum of three, I spend plenty of time running the kids around the countryside for their sporting activities and cheering them on from the sidelines. I’m also involved in the local sporting community, regularly attending committee meetings or helping out in the canteen on game day.
