Simone’s philosophy is that real estate is not about renting, selling or buying, but about helping people move, and moving is something Simone knows well. The majority of people cringe at the thought of moving, but Simone truly loves it, buying her first house at the age of 21. Simone has owned investment properties in Toowoomba and also has rented on several occasions while building. This means she has experienced all sides of real estate having been a landlord, tenant, buyer and seller.

She has worked closely with Rebecca for most of her nearly 20 years in real estate and together over their mutual love of coffee, the concept of Blackbird and Finch was born in 2016 and the concept was brought to life in 2017. In her previous life, Simone spent ten years working in the IT industry in Brisbane. During that time she upheld various roles including Quality Officer, Production Manager, Project Manager and Consultant. She worked in private enterprise consulting to one of Australia’s largest law firms, the Queensland Government, and also lectured at Griffith University. Simone prides herself on providing honest advice and professional service to achieve the desired result for her clients and is a licenced real estate agent.
