Callan Wayne-Bowles is a specialist mortgage adviser with over two decades in the industry. He's also the most successful poker player in the team.

Callan holds degrees in accountancy and commercial law from Victoria University, and has spent more than a decade working for major banks. Callan is known for his wealth of knowledge of the finance industry, and the huge number of repeat clients and referrals he receives is testament to his reputation as a leading mortgage adviser in Wellington. 

Outside of work you’ll find Callan out on his boat fishing. He’s also an avid snowboarder — well as much as his broken body allows! When he’s too broken for snowboarding, you’ll find him taking it a little easier with a round of golf — his favourite hole is the 19th!
