“Because I care” and believe that wisdom, integrity, honesty, growth, perseverance, excellence, and courage are the foundation of my values, and the reason people trust me.
My love for nature, art, music and travelling equipped me with insight, inspiration and appreciation which has given me a unique opportunity to enrich the lives of the people I meet.
Marielle, my daughter of 30 is running her own successful editing company and my son Kerwin, 25 is creating his niche in life in the construction industry. They give me purpose and joy.
I grew up in the bushveld and matriculated as Head Girl from Pretoria Commercial High School, received a BCom degree at the University of Pretoria, been nominated for Businesswoman of the year in the 80s, President of the Junior Chamber of Commerce in Pretoria, director of an international marketing and export business for 10 years and achieved the highest international qualification as a Certified Financial Advisor and am the first Certified Financial Transitionists Planner in Africa. I have a passion for professionalism, serving in the industry for 30 years and now I enjoy paying it forward. I also serve as a Non-Executive Director on the board of an ALTX listed company.
I was awarded the highest rating of 5-star VIP Executive Consultant status at Liberty Life, as the only active female consultant to do so in 30 years. This was only possible due to my consistent level of service towards my clients, with whom I work so closely. My clients appreciate who I am, they trust me as we work together to achieve their life goals of which financial security is but one of the pillars.
I believe in staying relevant and has therefore recently gone through my own transition by joining Adviceworx to provide independent advice.
The most important legacy I want to leave is knowing your true self and loving others the way you do yourself, as this will make a change in the smallest of things – which will become big.
