With 39 years of experience in the banking and financial industry, including 20 years as the proud owner-manager of two branches at Bank of Queensland, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of the sector.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of leading high-performing teams, fostering lasting client relationships, and driving business growth. Whether helping individuals secure their dream home or assisting businesses in managing their financial health, my focus has always been on delivering tailored solutions that meet the unique needs of my clients.
In addition to my lending expertise, I have provided strategic consultancy to businesses, helping them navigate complex financial landscapes and optimize their financial performance. I’m passionate about mentoring and empowering teams to deliver exceptional customer service while adapting to the ever-changing financial industry.

Based in Melbourne, our team brings 100 years of collective experience in the financial services industry, providing clients with the depth of knowledge and insight required to navigate today’s lending landscape with confidence. We deliver tailored finance solutions aligned with your broader financial objectives, not just your immediate borrowing needs.
Our approach is built on delivering clear, considered and customised advice, focused on your goals. Every lending solution is structured with purpose, aligned not only to your immediate borrowing needs, but to your broader financial strategy.
Whether you’re purchasing a home, expanding your investment portfolio, acquiring a business, or funding commercial growth; we act as your trusted intermediary, sourcing competitive lending options and managing the process from strategy through to settlement.
Beyond broking, we also offer commercially focused business consulting services. From cash flow and capital structuring to succession and growth planning, we work alongside business owners and their advisers to support informed decision-making and long-term success.
At Triple C, we provide expert guidance, tailored solutions, and exceptional service to help you move forward with confidence.
Why Use a Broker?
More than 70% of Australians now use a mortgage broker to secure a loan, and for good reason. At Triple C, we work for you, not the banks.
We start by understanding your financial needs and goals, so we can provide clear, considered, and customised advice every step of the way. Using our knowledge of the market and strong relationships with lenders, we research a wide range of options to find the solution that’s right for you, not what’s easiest for the banks.
We make the process simple:
- We handle the paperwork and manage your application from start to settlement.
- We use our experience to move quickly and efficiently, securing your finance as fast as possible.
- Our guidance doesn’t stop at settlement — we continue to support you, reviewing your loan regularly to ensure it always meets your needs, and helping you explore better options if they arise.
With Triple C, your finance journey is stress-free, strategic, and tailored to your goals, backed by advice that is clear, considered, and customised.
