She is currently undertaking a Bachelor of Laws at the Queensland University of Technology. Her role as Paralegal, assisting the Principal, Zasco with a range of her matters, particularly conveyancing.
Her attention to detail and high level of communication ensure a smooth conveyancing process and this is assisted by her having a good relationship with the listing and selling Agents in pursuit of the same goal.
