My journey at CommBank has taken me all across the Business Bank, with some of my most memorable highlights being as an Intern.

Always take up every opportunity you are given. There have been many times that I have turned down an opportunity because I didn’t think I was good enough. The opportunities missed could have been very valuable experiences.

The best thing about my job is that no two days are the same – it’s such a dynamic environment. I love that every day I face different challenges and new learning curves that help me to grow and develop as a professional.

Being a full-time working parent is a daily juggling act. However, working in a firm that promotes flexibility and work-life balance has greatly helped me with not only the advancement in my career but to also raise two children.

I think being a woman in a male-dominated arena is always a challenge – especially when it is largely relationship based and it at times feels like it will always be that way. Part of the challenge is dealing with this but still being authentic, i.e. work with “the boys” and earning their respect as an equal rather than trying to be something you are not.
