As prestige property specialists, we have a collective experience of 17 years, working collaboratively and seamlessly with our specialist Asia Markets team to offer the best service. Based in the Sydney CBD we have recently sold properties in Darling Point, Kangaloon, Braidwood, Inner West and Burradoo, breaking several suburb records. We advise on, market and sell properties like this five bedroom penthouse in Sydney.

We pride ourselves on exceeding our clients' expectations at every opportunity and producing the very best marketing collateral to sell their properties. For example the video for this four bedroom waterfront house in Church Point.

If you had a different job, what would it be?
Working in the creative field, I would love to design and style beautiful homes around the world and then film them for television. It is why I enjoy working with our partners, Coco Republic, for property styling and video promotional experts, Golden Eye Media, so much.
What are your favourite pastimes/hobbies?
Keeping fit and healthy, spending time with family and friends and travelling to beautiful places! I recently mixed business with pleasure and enjoyed Paris and London with the family.
What is your number one work mantra or advice?
You cannot do it alone; you need a team of skilled superstars around you. Do not be afraid to hire people more talented than yourself.
