Once you’ve met Hannah, you’ll understand why people often describe her as ‘a financial force of nature’.
There’s no doubt as to Hannah’s expertise – her list of qualifications is long. She’s also a best-selling personal finance author, media commentator, the founder of enable.me and developed a mortgage optimisation formula with the University of Auckland's Dr Jamie Snedden.
But what really sets Hannah apart is her ability to make financial matters relatable, help people understand what’s possible and then inspire them to achieve it.
Since founding enable.me in 2007, Hannah’s goal has been simple – to not only improve people’s financial position but improve their lives.
Thousands of clients will attest to the fact she’s achieved that in spades. Their only complaint is they wish they’d met her 10 years earlier!
With her strategic nous and boundless appetite for ‘better’, Hannah McQueen is someone everyone could benefit from having in their corner.
“It’s time for New Zealanders to be more ambitious.”
“Importantly, we did not feel any judgement about our current financial situation. Ray clearly outlined what’s possible for us to achieve, and we’re confident that we will have the support to meet our goals. We should have done this years ago.”
“Ray was professional, but also laid back – which really helped our nerves!”
“Ray is so easy to talk to”.

Ray knows what it’s like to be the 35-year-old who can’t figure out where his money goes.
He knows what it’s like to be a 38-year-old widower & single Dad barely able to stay afloat.
But he also knows what it’s like to be the 45-year-old who has smashed his financial goals.
Ray’s depth of personal experience is matched by the depth of his professional experience –across accounting firms, big corporates, and skills organisations.
He’s energised by now being able to work directly with people to improve their lives, and loves getting their money working harder for them, rather than the other way around.
Naturally curious, Ray loves getting to know what his clients value. Not everyone wants the same things or has the same resources and Ray is able to adapt his approach to fit.
The ultimate reward for Ray is seeing a client realise that their plan is working, they’re racing towards their goals and achieving things they didn’t think possible.

Coming from a big Samoan family, helping others is not only in Siaosi’s nature - it’s in his blood.

At enable.me he’s able to combine his financial nous with his deep-seated desire to help people do better.

Bachelor of Broadcast Communications – majoring in Journalism
My background is as a business journalist and host and later as presenter of TVNZ’s Breakfast show. I spent many years interviewing Hannah McQueen every few weeks on the television and she spoke such good sense that I decided I should go and see her.
That was the best financial decision my husband and I have ever made. It helped steer us through a period of huge change in our lives and now enableMe is helping us get ahead. I sought out Hannah as a mentor when I left television and at the start of 2018 I accepted a job with the company.
I now manage enableMe's marketing, brand and content, including producing editorial content for enableMe; managing our social media; and handling media interviews and enquiries. My job is to ensure we are always enhancing the enableMe brand.
As a business journalist, I often did stories on the lack of financial literacy in this country and its consequences. It was frustrating because so much of the strife I witnessed could have been avoided with better advice. It’s great to now work for a company that is seeking to improve that and every day is changing people’s lives for the better.
