I was born and raised in Perth in a tight-knit family of my parents and three siblings.

Growing up, I was initially drawn to music and enjoyed playing drums in bands through school and beyond. Throughout high school I was always drawn to architecture as a career option until I stumbled upon my true calling through an unexpected avenue: a high school economics class and a stock market game that sparked my interest in investing.

A pivotal moment occurred when my Dad took me to a Curtin University open day during my last few years of high school. Meeting a financial advisor there opened my eyes to the impact financial guidance can have and the growing need for high quality financial advice in Australia. Hearing about the positive changes it brings to lives inspired me to pursue this path.

My academic journey led me to complete a Bachelor of Commerce, with majors in Financial Planning and Economics. Since completing my undergraduate studies, learning has been a constant as I navigate the ever-changing landscape.

I started my career at Blueprint Wealth right after university in 2005, later gaining valuable experience as a Financial Advisor at two large banks, before returning to Blueprint Wealth in 2012. Throughout my career, I have believed in the value of cultivating lasting relationships with clients, which is the very essence of Blueprint Wealth’s approach.

What keeps me engaged is the blend of personal connections and financial problem-solving. Helping people navigate their financial landscapes and achieving their own personal goals, while delving into the intricate details is what makes my work both rewarding and stimulating.

I have two spirited young boys and, when I’m not at work or with my family, you might find me at the gym, enjoying music, playing drums or catching a good movie.

Thanks for taking the time to learn a bit about me. I’m excited to connect, understand your aspirations, and assist you in shaping your financial path.
