After starting my photography business in 2004 and have been doing weddings, lifestyle and corporate work for 16 years. I have amassed a huge network of industry professionals as well as previous clients.
After dabbling in real estate in 2019, Covid-19 forced me into a major career shift which meant I became a full time real estate agent in 2020.
Merging my love for relationships, marketing, all things digital and media the real estate industry was the perfect industry to transfer my skills to.
I started my internship and became a student again and after exams in 2024 became a fully qualified property practitioner.
I researched a lot of companies. I wanted to find a place where I had to the freedom to apply my marketing skills. Then I came across Chas Everitt. This was a company that had the same values as me and they embraced technology! I knew I was home!
I absolutely believe there business model to be the future of real estate and will transform the property industry over the next few years.
