I am working part time and studying full time. I wanted to make sure I finish my study as soon as possible.

I find growing a business, coaching junior staff and helping clients, all to be equally rewarding. I especially enjoy working on transactions that are ‘live’ and are read about in the newspapers and other media.

I am now a Senior Marketing Coordinator, started as a marketing assistant, then marketing coordinator.

Being a full-time working parent is a daily juggling act. However, working in a firm that promotes flexibility and work-life balance has greatly helped me with not only the advancement in my career but to also raise two children.

I am also working part time and volunteering for a mental health organisation.

I think being a woman in a male-dominated arena is always a challenge – especially when it is largely relationship based and it at times feels like it will always be that way. Part of the challenge is dealing with this but still being authentic, i.e. work with “the boys” and earning their respect as an equal rather than trying to be something you are not.
