Background/experience

Although I have a degree that specialises in Financial Risk Management, I started my career in IT where I studied to become an IT systems engineer. With my experience in IT, I ended up working for a software company that provided the technology to Independent Financial Advisors. In 2005 I joined Investec as a Private Banker for private clients. I was fortunate enough to head up the Legal & Self Employed teams which gave me fantastic exposure to private companies. In 2009 Investec asked me to assist with the launch and running of Investec Money, which was a retail deposit business focused on managing cash investments for individuals. In 2011 I left Investec to join Telesure Investment Holdings where I headed up the Auto & General Broker Business, Budget Face-2-Face and the Multi-brand Dealer Group Business. In 2014 I re-joined Investec as Head of Business Cash Solutions.

My interests and hobbies

I have a huge passion for sport and family. My 2 daughters are my inspiration and motivation to be the best that I can be. When I was younger I competed at a provincial level for a number of sporting disciplines. I currently love endurance sports that test me both physically and mentally. I completed my first full Ironman in 2011 follow by Comrades in 2012.
