For me it’s personal. My passion is working alongside my clients to assist them to grow and thrive in their business journey and beyond. My role extends further than providing the necessary tax and compliance obligations. Always close at hand I enjoy directing and nurturing my clients through the many decisions we make together. I make myself available far beyond the usual business hours as many crucial and important business decisions are made late into the night around the kitchen or boardroom table.

I am increasingly active in our community including committee representation on the Warburton Valley CEDA (Community Economic Development Association) which actively supports, advocates and represents the economic development of our community, businesses and individuals. This committee position enables an active collaboration and involvement with our local businesses, tourism traders, local councillors and state/federal government representatives.

More recently I held an active role in the Institute of Public Accountants focus group, participating in the IPA’s direction and position within our industry and also participated in the development of the ATO’s Cash Flow Management Program. This program benefits many of our clients and enhances their understanding of the importance of cash flow and the need to know such a position within their businesses.
