Hi, I'm Michael! Proud dad. Passionate Dees supporter. Part-time cyclist. Average golfer. Love to travel. Red wine enthusiast.
Beyond work, I love the simple things: watching my boys play sport, family bike rides, walks with our cheeky groodle Rosie, watching a Dees game, a casual round of golf and enjoying a relaxing glass of red with my wife Belinda at the week’s end. My heart lies in exploring new horizons, with Italy and Spain topping my travel list.
My fascination with finance sparked in my junior years, thanks to my dad’s job at the State Bank and my mums savvy gold coin saving which often funded our annual holiday at Apollo Bay. At 22, engaging a financial planner resulted in investing my hard-earned savings from working at Maccas, revealing the power of compound returns and getting proper advice.
That early interest in finance helped me build a professional career in financial services over 25 years. On the study front, I have completed a Bachelor of Business (Management), an Advanced Diploma (Financial Planning) and Certificate IV (Mortgage Broking). As a qualified financial adviser, I understand the importance making sure any mortgage guidance complements your overall financial picture and your plans for life.
Having bought a couple of properties and completed a major renovation myself, I’m looking forward to helping you on your property journey.

Michael from Circle Finance Group was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout our home buying journey. From day one, he took the time to walk us through our borrowing capacity, pre-approval, and the different loan scheme options available to us, always explaining things clearly and patiently. He made a genuinely stressful process feel manageable and gave us confidence at every stage, right through to settlement. We couldn't have asked for a better broker and would recommend Michael to anyone looking to buy a home. Thank you for everything!

Michael brings a highly professional, knowledgeable and genuinely personalised approach to finance. His ability to understand each client’s circumstances, explain options clearly and provide practical, well-considered guidance really stands out. Michael combines strong lending expertise with excellent communication and attention to detail, making what can often feel like a complex process far more straightforward and manageable. He is approachable, responsive and clearly committed to achieving the right outcome for the people he works with. I would confidently recommend Michael to anyone looking for trusted, client-focused advice around home loans, refinancing or property finance.
