    My focus is on providing the right insurance solutions for my clients to ensure that they have the right cover, at the right time, on the right people. I have worked with a lot of people over the last 20 years and as an Adviser, I can truly say that I am an insurance advocate – a believer in how insurance protects families and businesses. I make insurance relevant to peoples’ lives and help them understand the reasons why they have it.

    As a Financial Adviser and the Managing Director of Wealthpoint Nelson, I love my dual role of listening to and looking after my clients as well as overseeing the strategic management of our local business. I am also a Director and Chairman of Wealthpoint Ltd [NZ], our cooperative hub that represents and provides management services to our New Zealand wide members.

    I am passionate about helping clients understand what truly matters to them when it comes to managing their money. Once we uncover their goals, we work together to create a clear and achievable path forward. My approach is centred on building genuine relationships, getting to know my clients well, understanding their unique circumstances, and ensuring they feel supported, informed, and confident in every decision they make.

    I believe everyone can benefit from quality financial advice at key stages of life, and I love taking the time to connect, chat, and guide clients through the options available to them. My areas of expertise are managed funds, KiwiSaver and retirement planning. With over 15 years’ experience in the financial advice industry, I’m committed to helping clients make choices that will positively shape their long-term financial wellbeing.

    Originally from South Africa, I met my Kiwi husband while on my OE in London, and New Zealand has been home ever since. Outside of work, Glen and I enjoy planning family trips and exploring new places whenever we can. With our three children now venturing into study and work, we’re embracing the fun and freedom that comes with an ‘empty nest’.

    If you’re seeking an adviser who is approachable, thorough, and dedicated to supporting you in achieving your financial goals, I would be pleased to guide you through the process.

    I first discovered the importance of having the right insurance in place when I started working in financial services at 24. Now, with more than a decade of experience, and as a mum of two young girls, I genuinely appreciate the peace of mind that good life and health insurance can bring to a family.

    I love talking with people about their goals, their concerns, and the “what ifs” that can feel overwhelming. Over the years, I’ve naturally become the goto insurance person among my peers, especially for those in their twenties and thirties who are juggling careers, young families, and the realities of adult life. I understand those challenges firsthand and enjoy helping people feel informed, confident, and supported in their decisions.

    Outside of work, you’ll usually find me enjoying a good coffee, exploring Nelson’s dining scene, unwinding at the gym or on a walk with friends and family.

    If you’ve been thinking about your own circumstances and would like some guidance around personal risk insurance, I’m here to make the tricky conversations feel easier.
