Senior Associate and Registered SMSF Auditor

At CMA we are focused on doing things better than last time instead of just the same as last time. I enjoy that we are a progressive firm who look to technology to gain greater efficiencies in our work.

On a personal level I can relate with the small business owner, having a business interest in both an IGA Supermarket and an independently owned Gym and Health Club.  

Owning a business doesn't need to be stressful. In the past we found the number one complaint from our clients was the lack of time they have to do paperwork, wages, super, GST and tax.

These time pressure can be minimised by careful planning and using innovative software solutions and technology to the advantage of your business. I can help guide you through these processes and make a positive difference in your business and personal life.

Once we have your business life sorted then I like to move you onto my speciality in Self-Managed Super Funds (SMSFs). Almost anyone can own and manage their own super, but don't believe everything you hear about SMSFs, come and talk to us.

Outside of office hours, I am married and I am "mum's taxi" to two teenagers, love to keep fit (because I enjoy my food and wine) and I am also a passionate Brisbane Lions AFL fan.
