Tell us about yourself
tauranga born and bred, i established clay mortgages and insurance earlier last year. i’m a big lover of the outdoors, enjoy hanging out with my family and love health and fitness, in particular pilates and calisthenics
Clay is a boutique Mortgage Advisory business located in the sunny Bay of Plenty. Founded on the simple idea that mortgages need not be the big scary, jargon filled, sweat inducing beasts that they are for many. In fact, the right mortgages crafted individually can fit your lifestyle perfectly! I have a deceptively competitive attitude to see every person I work with get to their own financial milestones
Between being a mum of two rugby mad boys, a dog mum to Toa our Staffy, a wife…I know how to juggle a hectic lifestyle. I have been in the banking industry since way back when, holding numerous senior roles with some of the major players in Auckland and locally. I know the banking industry, how it works and how to mould it to work best for everyone, without the jargon
Knowing the industry is one thing, understanding what my clients are after is another; my genuine care and compassion for people is my real superpower

What is your relationship with Moochi and what draws you to the brand?
i have been shopping with moochi since it first began. the first time i came across moochi was when chris and kellie had a little workroom upstairs on the main road in mount maunganui. moochi is so easy to wear and extremely versatile. i always feel put together wearing moochi, without the admin!
What does style mean to you? How does it play a part in your every day?
Style is a way of expressing yourself to the world. It is the combination of the way you dress, the way you talk and move. It’s a reflection of your inner being, your thoughts, emotions, interests and values. Style is a choice. I love to look well presented when meeting my clients but portray a sense of calmness and ease to make them feel comfortable and that they have come to the right person. My Moochi pieces always do this for me, making me feel confident, stylish and comfortable
Describe your style in 3 words
Stylish, classic and functional
Do you have any favourite moochi pieces?
this is so tough to answer because i have many and wear them everyday. the boyfriend jean, white tee and leather jacket i have owned for i don’t know how long! they are my go-tos. safe to say 98% of my wardrobe is moochi
What are your favourite pieces from palette one?
the eider jumpsuit, wow! the linear vest in brick red (love this colour) plus the twisted skirt and matching twisted tee in the same fabric. i need all of these pieces!
