“I lead a wonderful team of eight women. I have the opportunity within my business to travel and support our clients, which is very rewarding. Community involvement is very important to us as we live in a regional area. I contribute substantially to a number of community events and clubs, as NIS is focused on being invested in our local community. ”

“This year, we volunteered at Queen Victoria Market stallholders for SMBS as a Small Business Mentor to help traders in areas including sales strategies, refining marketing tactics, honing planning skills and more. We listen and try to understand the challenges faced by small business owners and provide the support they need to ensure their businesses thrive.”

“In 2015, we had a superstorm here in Maitland that devastated the area. Feeling quite helpless, the only way I could put minds at ease was to go visit my business clients face to face, help them sweep out muddy water, and reassure them that they had cover and that I was there to help them.
For most of my clients, this was one of the most traumatic experiences to go through, as not only did they have damage to their business, but also their homes. This event cemented some really deep relationships between us and our clients and is one of the main reasons we are 100% referral-based now.”

"Through the Gloves Up Youth Program Australia Inc, Silverback Insurance promotes healthy habits and positive relationships, empowering young people to make better choices and shape a brighter future. This commitment reinforces our dedication to strength, protection, and service, ensuring lasting impacts on individuals and communities.
"In 2023, I provided SURA Construction with feedback regarding a specific area of policy coverage for Protection works. This prompted SURA construction to identify areas for improvement within their Protection Works coverage (specifically for Victoria), which will ensure their clients receive robust and relevant protection.”

“We’ve worked with CBN to introduce an annual Charity Challenge. Last year, we took a group of brokers from CBN to Kangaroo Island, where they embarked on a seven-day trek along the island’s Wilderness Trail, raising $40,000 for Foodbank. This year, along with expert guides from Huma Charity Challenge, we will take 16 members from CBN along the Larapinta Trail in Alice Springs, with an aim to raise $60,000 to support the APY Land Fruit and Vegetable Program. This cause plays a vital role in helping local Indigenous communities enhance their health and well-being by providing essential fresh produce.”
