Growing up on a large cropping and grazing farm in Orange, working in the country was a real no-brainer for me. It’s a place I know and love. When I go out for lunch and see people that I know it reminds me of that connection with the community.
A big part of my role is coaching customers and creating long-term strategies for them and their families. Over the past few years, my customers have faced tragic experiences – drought, bushfires, and the pandemic but coming out on the other side knowing that my customers’ businesses were ok is the ultimate form of success for me.
As an Agribusiness Executive for the Gippsland/ Regional Vic Area, I take care of farmers who look after everything from beef, broilers, orchards, dairy farming, and wineries. I’ve been in this role for more than a year, and I’m still learning so much every day because every customer journey is unique. And seeing their journey from end to end is one of the best parts of my role. I’m supported by my manager to get involved in events within the dairy industry so we’re not seen as just bankers, but a helping hand in the community.
My journey at CommBank has taken me all across the Business Bank, with some of my most memorable highlights being an Intern. There’s a focus on your development from day one, and since applying for the Internship Program five years ago, to being in a permanent role, I've continued to have opportunities to work on exciting and impactful projects. The key to this is showing interest and initiative to learn every day!
Outside of work, I’m a semi-pro netballer. Something I didn’t realise before joining the bank as an Intern was the flexibility I could have in my career. This allowed me to not only commit to my teammates in the workplace but on the netball courts as well.
