For 11 years I had the honour of making movies, it was my dream come-true-life. I rose in the industry, with back breaking hard work, thousands of hours and hundreds of thousands of kilometres on the road. It was an incredible world to experience, and the highlights of my career were working with some of the biggest names in the film industry, from Avengers: Age of Ultron to Isidingo. Working in the Art Department, I created a world to film in, a world that was made of cardboard, and stylised ideas. Where an actor walked in, and made it real for that scene, they created the illusion that it was a real world. And this was incredible to watch, to inspire and to work on. I loved every minute of it.

Yet this world always felt fake. It was just "for show". I needed more substance in my life, I needed to make a difference for people. I wanted to help make people's dreams a true reality. And so, I followed in my family's footsteps, the long lineage of very successful Estate Agents. And I have really found my true passion!

Real Estate for me is not just "sales" deep. It is making connections with people's dreams, their hopes, their ambitions. It is the honour of introducing a person to their "Happily Ever After". When you choose an Estate Agent to assist you with your sale or purchase, you are choosing not just a face, or a brand, a piece of paper or a machine, you are choosing a person too, the person that is going to hold your hand through the most difficult, stressful, and the biggest decision of your life. It is choosing the hand that will help you find where you will be your most vulnerable, where you sleep, where you cook and share meals, where you laugh and cry, where you dance and celebrate, where you will hold your first child, your grandchild...

Choosing an Estate Agent is like choosing a body guard, you want a good one! Someone that understands your needs, your dreams and your hopes, what you hope to achieve, what you hope to make work and how you intend on doing this. Buying and selling is not just about a sale, it is the most important decision of your life. It is the brick foundation in which your dreams will come true. This is what drives me, this is why I love what I do. I love making dreams come true! And I love seeing a client's face lighten as they walk through the door of a house for the first time, placing themselves in it, picturing how to arrange their furniture and imagining the rest of their lives there... Home. There is a magic to this moment, this moment of realisation that the possibility is here in front of you, your "Happily Ever After"... And I am honoured to share in this experience with people.
