Who am I?
I’m a third-generation real estate professional, proud Matakana Coast local, and passionate storyteller who believes property is about people, connection, and community.
Real estate runs deep in my family, my grandfather founded Newman Real Estate in Arrowtown, and many of my relatives still sell homes across Aotearoa. But for me, it’s always been about doing things differently. After a career as a Chartered Accountant and CFO in the tourism industry, I brought my love of design, finance, and storytelling together to help people find their place to belong, right here on the Matakana Coast.
I live locally with my husband Mark and our two kids, Frankie and Lulu. You’ll find us at the Saturday markets, coaching football, volunteering with the Matakana Fire Brigade, or simply enjoying life by the water. This community means everything to us, and that’s why I’m so passionate about helping others call it home too.
With a background in marketing and a social media community of over 150,000+, I bring a modern, story-driven approach to real estate. Every home has a soul, and my role is to capture that feeling, to create campaigns that connect emotionally and stand out visually. From Wes Anderson-style video tours to Palm Springs-inspired launch events, I believe selling property should be an experience, not just a transaction.
If you’re thinking about selling, or dreaming of finding your next home in Matakana, Omaha, Point Wells, or the surrounding coast, I’d love to share a coffee and a conversation.
