Momentum Financial Planner

Do you want to know why I am so passionate about what I do? Two weeks before my 7th birthday, my father passed away and left my mother with vast amounts of debt. The turmoil that followed due to this event, caused the loss of our home and all assets. From living a privileged life to one where my mother had to start working and the loss of all luxuries, including private schooling, vacations and the list goes on. I was very young when it happened, yet when I think about it all, it was a very traumatic chain of events and all due to one major fact and that not being able to be financially secure, within a major life changing event taking place in your life. As a qualified Dental Technician, to becoming a Scuba Diving Instructor and then in 2002 I became a Financial Planner. I enjoy and excel in assisting people and being a Financial Planner is an exceptionally rewarding and fulfilling career for me.
