Branch Manager Seeff Riebeek Valley
Born and bred in the beautiful Boland Winelands, I had the privilege of growing up in the picturesque town of Paarl at the foot of the Paarl Mountains.

My first steps into the property industry started with me obtaining my Consumer Science degree from the University of Stellenbosch specialising in housing as my core focus during my studies.

On completion I had the opportunity to spend the first two years of my career working in the United Kingdom for an acclaimed international law firm where I obtained valuable knowledge in the industry on an international stage. Returning to South Africa in the early days of January 2003 I decided to continue my career path in the property industry and joined the Seeff group later that year in March.

Having a passion for both property and problem solving there was no thought in my mind that Seeff will provide me with the opportunity to grow professionally in the industry while also adding my vast international experience and knowledge to their already established brand.

Overseeing the daily operations of all our license areas including conveyancing and finance soon became the main focus of my area within the group. Added to that my responsibilities as office manager for the following branches: Paarl, Franschhoek, Wellington, Worcester, Tulbagh, Ceres and Malmesbury, I soon found myself busier than ever.

In my spare time I love to spend time raising my two adorable youngsters and treasure my beach walks with my husband. Family is of the utmost importance to me not just within my direct family but also my extended Seeff family.
