What do you do?

I have an awesome amount of fun working with Miss Jane every day and helping my clients succeed in what they love to do, while making their lives easier, up to date and simplified.

When did you start Accounting?

Year 10 to be exact…which was a while ago! I loved it from the first day I was taught a debit and credit so it was an obvious choice.

Describe yourself in three words

Dedicated, Innovative, Nocturnal,

Apart from accounting what is your favourite thing to do?

I love music, so my favourite thing is going to a concert or the theatre for a show or two……or three.

Why did you decide to do what you do now?

I love helping people to be organised and achieve their business goals. By starting our business Jane and I were able to give our clients the service and help they were wanting and needing. I love hearing back from clients who are super excited having been able to achieve their goals through my help and advice.

Who would you love to have a drink with and why?

Karen, Jack, Will and Grace of course. I could nominate someone predictable and inspirational but you could always just buy their book and learn the same things. At least with Karen, Jack, Will & Grace …… it would be an brilliant and hilarious night.

What is your favourite Meal?

A good red duck curry served with a full-bodied glass of Shiraz of course!

1 thing you can’t live without?

Family – at the end of the day, they are my best cheer squad and support team.

What do you do?

I’m an organizer and planner.  Don’t sit too still or I will have a label made up and stuck on you!!  Small business is my passion and I love to help them keep on track.

When did you start Accounting?

I started accounting when I was six years old, keeping my three older brothers in check during our games of Monopoly! I started as a keen, number-crunching tax accountant as soon as I graduated from University and haven’t looked back since.

Describe yourself in three words

Friendly, Committed and Hard-working

Apart from accounting what’s your favourite thing to do?

I love spending time with friends and family, either over a casual meal or away at a relaxing beachside getaway somewhere sunny!

Why did you decide to do what you do now?

I have always loved the challenge of understanding the ins and outs of taxation and accounting, and working with my clients to help get the best outcome for them and their business. This is all the more fun when working alongside Lauren!

What’s your greatest achievement?

Personally – walking the Cinque Terra! It was a long day in scorching heat, walking up and down rocky goat trails, with rustic pizzas and thirst-quenching homemade lemon drinks to tempt me along the way…but not being able to stop for fear that I may not be able to start again!

Professionally – starting my own business with Lauren.

Who would you love to have a drink with and why?

Tony Soprano – who does your tax, Tony?!

What’s your favourite Meal?

The basil and pinenut pizza I had at the end of the Cinque Terra Trail – bliss!

1 thing you can’t live without?

My phone – the portal to my world!  Oh and Salt & Vinegar chips – love em!!
