As a Business Advisory Partner in an accounting firm for over 22 years, and working in accounting, taxation & business advisory for nearly 35 years, I have accumulated a wealth of knowledge and experience in helping clients solve problems and achieve great outcomes. In addition to the traditional accounting, taxation and consulting based services, I established and headed our finance and mortgage broking division which included home and investment loans as well as commercial and equipment finance. We also worked extensively with other finance and mortgage brokers to ensure our clients were delivered the best possible solutions in respect to their finance requirements. This also included consulting to clients and engaging with lenders on their behalf to navigate the complexity that is inherent in a specialised industry.I like to think that I live by my mantra that life is about experiences and not being limited by fear. I am a firm believer that anything is possible if you just set your mind to it. I have been known for getting things done, finding the right solution for any problem and taking challenges head-on. As a professional, be it in the accounting industry or as a finance and mortgage broker, I am positive, ambitious, and committed to the well-being of his clients. Valuing honesty and integrity at the highest level in both myself and my clients, I am at my best when working with people who share these values. As I leave the accounting and taxation industry behind me to focus solely on Finance and Mortgage Broking , I am driven by the achievement of great outcomes for my clients, Kista Finance and the network I engaged with. I love working with clients who are passionate about what they do, and invite me to be part of their journey toward success. With our fairly recent move to the Bellarine Peninsula, we are enthusiastically engaging and becoming involved in what is a great community. I also have a particular affinity towards charities, especially those that promote humanity and well-being, the protection of animals (of course) and nature and the preservation of our history. I have in the past been involved with a number of different charities, and I am currently the proud Treasurer of the Royal Historical Society of Victoria.I now embark on this next part of my professional journey with excitement and anticipation of the opportunities that await me.
