During my career in sales, I learned that people buy from people. Clients have bought and sold with me because they trust me and because I listen. In fact, listening is my specialty.

When I consult with first-home buyers and help them to realise their real estate dreams, it reminds me why I’m in the real estate business. Providing a professional service and adding value, so homeowners can reach a maximum return on their most important asset, means I achieve my clients’ goals and my goals. A win-win for all!

Choosing to work for Barfoot & Thompson was an easy choice for me. Their core values of trust, family and community are a true reflection of how I live my life. Family is everything to me and I believe in giving back to my community.

I completed a Bachelor of Science majoring in Entrepreneurship and Business Administration at Winthrop University, South Carolina in the US. With discipline and consistency, I built my professional sporting career to international heights. After seven years in the corporate world and just recently, selling land and home packages to the first-home buyer market on behalf of property developers, I understand what is needed to excel in this profession. An award for ICT salesperson of the Year for 2017 and 2018 is an honour of which I’m particularly proud.

Auckland has so much potential, with residents having access to opportunities that are just not available in other New Zealand cities. West Auckland is home for me and my family. My way of giving back to my community is by using my sporting skills. I volunteer and teach young kids at local schools. I’m passionate about health and fitness so this benefits me too.

My motto in life is to “treat people how I would want to be treated”. Call me at Barfoot & Thompson West Harbour and I’ll listen and understand where you are heading in the real estate world.
