Jackie’s passion for personal finance was ignited when she and her husband purchased their first home 20-odd years ago and started thinking about their long-term financial plans. With a bachelor of Commerce from Griffith University, Jackie has dedicated her career to helping people manage their money more efficiently, regardless of their income or educational background.
Jackie noticed that many people struggle with managing their money, regardless of income or education, and began helping friends and family set up budgets on scraps of paper.
