A Coach! is how I would describe myself. With a passion of developing people/teams and helping them achieve their goals I started working in the financial services industry in 2006 . I consider myself very grateful to have been involved with some amazing individuals, businesses over the years building friendships and lifelong relationships along the way.

So it is my top priority to bring my best knowledge, experience on the table for every client to access. I like to empower my clients to take control and assist them in making a well informed decision!

insurance career, John is now focussing on corporate insurance solutions for our clients.
Workplace medical insurance cover is one of the highly rated and desired workplace perk. With New Zealand’s public health system under immense pressure, the need to private health insurance hasn’t been more important. If you have as little as 15 employees, you can potentially offer them a group health insurance covering pre existing conditions and assist them in getting back to work sooner, rather than waiting in the public system queue.
When not working, John likes to take his classic Mercedes for a drive or spend time at Waihi beach.
As a local boy living in Waikato all my life, I have made some great connections with people along the way – whether it’s been through sports (where I played cricket competitively at an age-group representative/district level) or through the community.
I am enthusiastic and like to display a genuine interest in people and I am always willing to learn. My well-mannered genuine persona centres around my ability to communicate and connect well with others and to effectively listen to people’s needs at a professional standard.
Before joining up with Waikato Mortgage and Life Brokers I was leading people as a store manager for a global giant. Through this experience, I learned the significance of genuine customer service, problem-solving, building relationships, and achieving desired results by going above and beyond for people.
After a long-standing mentor and mentee relationship between myself and Nitin which began in my high school days through cricket we have reunited again through a different dynamic – of helping individuals with their finances and health.
I enjoy spending time with friends and family and lead an active lifestyle through playing club cricket, going on hikes and keeping active at the gym as well as teeing off on the golf course.
I hold a level 5 financial services qualification.
