For me, life is all about family and living life to the fullest. I was born and raised in Coolbellup, Perth on Whadjuk Noongar Boodja. I’m extremely family-orientated which fits with me having a huge family. I have two adult children and two grandkiddies who I love spending time with. My family gatherings are always a riot with all the grandkids, nieces and nephews, all gathered together.
In my spare time I also enjoy going on trips in our caravan up and down the coast. I’m all about making memories with my family and friends and living life together.
At IBA, I am a Principle Home Lending Officer which involves helping customers take the next step in their homeownership journey. From the initial assessment of EOI’s (Expression of interest), through to supporting customers through their application and purchasing journey. This includes seeking borrowing capacity, offer guidance/tools if they aren’t ready to go now and prepare loan submission to credit for decision.
School was never really for me; my Mum said I could get a full-time job instead, so I decided to leave in year 10 to do so. I worked in different industries, ranging from retail and other financial institutions.
At my previous workplace where I worked in home lending a friend told me about IBA, after I had a look on the website, I decided I’d like to make the move. I’ve now been here for one year. The work here is so different compared to the other places that I have worked and I love it. I love how we help people and change people’s lives.
I love helping people and I always want to know what more can I do. I’ve worked with customers who came from being homeless to now owning their own home. That’s the type of change that brightens my day. The work we do here aligns with my core values and the difference I want to make to people’s lives.
Sharing finance and education, and being part of the process to assist customers in generational wealth is priceless. This creates that ripple effect for their families to share and continue to pass on that knowledge.
I can’t name anything specific, but anything Country. Artists like Luke Combs, Morgan Whalan and a couple of oldies such as Charlie Pride, Alan Jackson. Country music just speaks to my soul and is able to calm me on a bad day.
