What made you originally choose to work at LJ Hooker Property Partners?
I chose to work at LJ Hooker Property Partners because I was looking for a brand that not only had a strong presence in the market but also aligned with my values—professionalism, integrity, and a genuine commitment to client care. What stood out to me about this office in particular was its reputation for high performance and its supportive, team-focused culture.
I wanted to be part of a business that invests in its people, offers ongoing training, and embraces innovation. From the first meeting, it was clear that LJ Hooker Property Partners had the right environment to help me grow both personally and professionally, while being backed by one of Australia’s most trusted real estate brands.
What do you enjoy most about working at LJ Hooker Property Partners?
What I enjoy most about working at LJ Hooker Property Partners is the strong sense of teamwork and shared commitment to excellence. The culture here is incredibly supportive—we’re encouraged to grow individually while also collaborating to deliver the best results for our clients. LJ Hooker has a long-standing reputation in real estate, and being part of a brand that blends tradition with innovation is inspiring.
I also appreciate the access to industry-leading tools, training, and systems that make it easier to provide top-tier service. Most of all, I love being surrounded by passionate, motivated professionals who genuinely care about making a difference in people’s lives through property.
What do you feel is the difference you offer to clients?
I offer a client-first approach rooted in transparency, communication, and market knowledge. I focus on understanding each client’s unique needs—whether they’re buying their first home, investing, or selling. My goal is to provide a seamless experience with clear guidance and data-backed advice, helping clients make confident, informed decisions.
What are your favourite things about the areas you service?
I love the blend of lifestyle, community, and opportunity in the areas I serve. Whether it’s the family-friendly parks, vibrant local businesses, or strong school districts, each neighbourhood has its own personality. I enjoy helping clients discover not just a home, but a community that truly fits their lifestyle.
How have you utilised your previous career history, skills, and knowledge in your current role?
My background in being a Buyer’s Agent has been a huge asset, (in my opinion, buyer work is important as the buyer is the one who determines what they pay for the seller’s home, so asking the right questions of the buyer is crucial). I bring these strengths to every buyer to ensure that our vendors get the maximum amount for their home.
What are some major things you have learnt since starting work here?
I’ve learned that adaptability and continuous learning are essential in real estate. The market shifts, client needs evolve, and technology changes rapidly. I’ve also deepened my understanding of the emotional side of buying or selling—empathy and patience go a long way in building lasting relationships.
What are your goals for the future?
I’m focused on growing my client base through referrals and repeat business, which I see as the ultimate sign of trust. Long-term, I’m working toward building a team, expanding into investment advisory, and contributing to community development projects. I’m here for the long haul, building both a business and a legacy.
What advice do you have for others wanting to pursue a career in real estate/sales?
Be prepared to work hard, stay consistent, and invest in relationships. Success doesn’t happen overnight, but if you’re passionate, proactive, and always learning, it’s incredibly rewarding. Find a mentor, build a network, and never stop improving your knowledge of the market and people.
As well as find a company that you will grow in and provide the training that is required in order for you to succeed.
