I grew up on the far West Rand - in a town called Carletonville - so returning many years later in life to the Roodepoort area felt like coming home. My career in real estate started in 2000. I took my exams at Unisa in Durban and worked as an agent on the South Coast in Port Shepstone and Umtentweni. Having cut my teeth in the industry in what was a buyers’ market, I then moved to Midrand where I was an agent with Aida, and during this time I gained valuable experience in the sectional title market and agricultural properties. In 2006 we relocated our family to Roodekrans to be closer to my wife’s offices where we raised our 3 wonderful sons. The West Rand was kind to us and brought along with it, new opportunities, the most notable of which being my role as a CRO at Dykes Van Heerden. What an honor and privilege it is to now be appointed as the Group Operations & Technology Manager. Harcourts Rhino, a hugely successful business of over 36 years standing, where I can work with the brilliant Business Owner, Louis Barbosa. I am proud to now be part of the “Harcourts Rhino Family."
