I bring over 20 years of sales, marketing and management experience to Barfoot & Thompson Greenlane.
I entered the real estate industry in 1996 in the desirable and competitive markets of Ponsonby, Grey Lynn and Herne Bay. Having renovated many villas in these suburbs, I knew the area well so when it came to involving myself in a professional capacity - it was a natural progression.
In 1997, one year after I entered the business, I was awarded REINZ Runner Up Rooky of the Year and was also named number one in the branch. Early on in my career I earned a reputation for integrity and professionalism.
Always up for a challenge, I bought my own real estate business in Remuera and grew the business by over 300% in just a few short years. I eventually sold the business and shifted my attention to a variety of small business roles including time in Auckland's subdivision space. These high-pressure roles equipped me with a sound knowledge of Auckland's then Operative District Plan and the current Unitary Plan - a valuable knowledge base to have when it comes to property.
Eventually, I returned to real estate and after three years as Sales Manager at Barfoot & Thompson Greenlane, was appointed Manager of the Devonport branch. Coming full circle was an exciting move – I was moving back to the villas and bungalows that I loved so much.
Then, as often happens in life, I was presented with an exciting opportunity – to take up the role of Branch Manager at Barfoot & Thompson Greenlane. Returning to Greenlane gives me the chance to continue to guide the team to further success.
"After all, that's what this business is about – people!"
