About Briana

Making mortgages feel simple.

Hi, I'm Briana, a mortgage adviser based in Christchurch and part of the team at Guardian Smith Mortgages. I work with clients all across New Zealand, helping them secure the right lending solutions for their unique situations.

Whether you're buying your first home, refinancing, topping up, or looking to invest, I'm here to make the process as clear and stress-free as possible. I take the time to understand your goals, explain your options in plain language, and create a plan that suits where you're at now and where you want to be.

Outside of work, I enjoy being outdoors, going for walks, and camping with my partner around the South Island. I'm proud to call Canterbury home and love helping others plant their roots here and across New Zealand.
