Starting a new job during a global pandemic and a national lockdown has been surreal, but it does really put things into perspective. With ongoing uncertainty, more people than ever are going to need good financial advice, which is fantastic motivation to get stuck into my new role.
With three years now in the financial industry, I have a wealth of experience in insurance, a strong interest in KiwiSaver and investments, and I am looking forward to expanding my knowledge in the mortgage space in my role as Client Services Manager for Graham Goodisson.
As a nurse in my previous life, I am pragmatic, empathetic and driven to achieve better outcomes for individuals and communities. I also strongly believe that health is deeply integrated with and influenced by financial wellness.
When I changed careers a few years ago I wanted a role that would still enable me to help people and make a difference in their lives and I have loved immersing myself in the world of financial advice. Although I loved being a nurse, I appreciate being able to spend my nights and weekends at home with my family these days, and I’m pleased that my daughter will grow up with more financial nous than I did!
