Kandi started in the finance industry in 2007 working within a property investment company in Queensland.  Kandi’s role was to assist property investors with their finance strategies and then manage the loan application process. Kandi then decided to take the leap and go out on her own, setting up her own business in 2010, and continuing her focus on property investing through individual, company/trust and SMSF lending structures.

Kandi is passionate about making a financial difference in her clients’ lives and supporting them with their goals of home ownership and wealth creation through property. She also loves to see the education passed on to her clients’ children and seeing them make a start in investing at a young age.

Kandi took a career break from finance for a few years in 2018, during which time she took up a youth worker role, looking after children in the care of Child Services.  This was a very challenging and rewarding role, but something that Kandi did not plan to do long term.  In 2021 she decided to go back into the finance industry with a renewed passion for assisting her clients to get ahead through finance and property.

In Kandi’s downtime, she enjoys spending time on her family’s farm with their menagerie of animals and extensive gardens.  She also enjoys going up to the coast in the winter, boating and fishing.
