Sarah has been in Financial Services in NZ for almost 30 years. From becoming a Branch Manager for the ASB at the age of 23 she then went on to a Regional Sales Managers role, training and supporting Branch Managers and their teams, before moving to Sovereign to train Insurance Advisers in 2006. This inspired her to move into the role of Insurance Adviser herself, to use her skills and experience to help women and families with their insurance.

Sarah spent time with Insurance People, based in Ponsonby before she went on to own an NZ Home Loans Franchise for 9 years, helping clients with their mortgages and insurance before having a 3-year break to have their second baby (and a global pandemic).

Sarah believes insurance is a necessity for everyone and it’s her passion to make sure everyone has the cover they need, at the right price and on the right terms. Sarah has many great success stories where she was able to help people make necessary claims on their cover at a time when everything seems overwhelming for the client. Insurance is in fact the ark we all need.

Sarah is thrilled to have now joined her insurance business with Rachael Thompson – The Smarter Mortgage lady and together they are The Smart Advice Collective.

Sarah is also a Mum to two girls, plus 2 dogs, and enjoys spending time with her husband and wider family – preferably outdoors!
