Position: Director Qualifications: CA, B Com Experience: Brophy Knight since 1997 Born and bred in Ashburton, after graduation from the University of Canterbury in 1997 with a Bachelor or Commerce degree, I joined Brophy Knight & Partners as an accounting graduate. After gaining my Chartered Accountant qualification in 2000 I became a Partner of Brophy Knight Limited on 1 January 2006. During my time at Brophy Knight I have been fortunate to have received guidance and mentoring from George Brown, Graham Kennedy and David Fisher and have been provided with a broad range of experience across a number of industries and a number of opportunities to become heavily involved with these clients. My strengths lie in the areas of business structuring, taxation and business advisory services with a weighting of my client base towards the commercial sector, with commercial clients making up approximately 80% of my client base.  I enjoy the diversity of clients that Brophy Knight has and consider that Brophy Knight has a strong future given the skill base of the current partners and staff within the firm. Outside work, I enjoy most sports and spending time with family Angela, Josh and Oliver.
