Property and all aspects of real estate have been a lifelong passion for Gaye.

Having received one of the first agents’ representative certificates in Victoria in the late 1980’s, Gaye’s experience spans all aspects of property management, trust accounting and sales in diverse markets from inner Melbourne to suburban Sydney.

A highlight of Gaye’s working life was time spent on the management team at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 and game day operations for major NRL franchise, Parramatta.

But a subsequent stint in commercial management in Newcastle proved best fit and after a move to Geelong Region to be closer to family Gaye has successfully developed a strong commercial profile and reputation for diligence and integrity over the past 18 years in Geelong.
