Chermaine graduated from Monash University in 2007 with a Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting and Finance). She began her career at Pricewaterhouse Coopers in the Assurance and Corporate Value Advisory service line for 2 and 5 years respectively. During her time there, she qualified as a Chartered Accountant with the Institute of Chartered Accountants Australia and in 2012, was awarded the 2012 Candidate of the Year.

Chermaine is dedicated to coaching and mentoring young students with an interest in accounting, finance, tax and consulting. She believes that the best way to learn in this specialisation is by understanding the linkage between the syllabuses and its application in the real world.
In her free time, Chermaine enjoys cooking and playing the piano. Neither of which she does well.
