I started working as a Rural Financial Counsellor at the end of 2021 coming to the role with 6 years of experience in the accounting field. I have recently returned to the role after some time off on maternity leave and I look forward to getting back to helping farmers through challenging times. I have completed my Diploma in Financial Counselling as well as a Diploma in Accounting.
I was born in South Africa and raised on my grandfather’s poultry farm. We moved to Australia when I was 12 years old to Cootamundra where I now live with my husband and our 3 girls. My husband does broadacre cropping and we are currently working to build up our cattle numbers.
I have seen the various factors that can influence farmers and I am passionate to help them navigate their business through these difficult periods. I am very determined to help farmers and their families succeed in an ever-changing environment.
