Hi. I'm Mark Kelman. Nice to meet you!

I find it hard to define myself in a single profession. My work varies between investing, research and writing (across many topics), veterinary pharmaceuticals, clinical practice (but not currently), and philanthropic pursuits. I also love running and have in the past run one marathon (I loved it) and multiple half-marathons. These days I usually limit my runs to 5-10kms.

Here on Medium, I share insights on foundational investor habits, risk management, and growth strategies (particularly in property investing).

I also share information on health and science - two topics that resonate significantly with me.

On the topic of investing, whether you’re a beginner or have early to mid-level experience, my goal is to inspire you to take the next steps in your wealth-creation journey, equipped with the mindset and tools you need to succeed.

In 2007, I achieved my first major success in property investing by purchasing a block of 6 units and selling it for over a million dollars. This milestone gave me the confidence to take on larger projects and solidified my belief that smart investing can create win-win outcomes, and help people reach financial freedom. My core values of honesty, ethics, and good communication guide every decision I make, ensuring the best outcomes for everyone, from each transaction.

I published my first book in 2014 (Become A Property Millionaire In Your Spare Time), and a revised version is in process. I have a couple of other books that are in the wings, too.

Beyond investing and writing, I’m passionate about making a difference in the veterinary world. One of my life’s missions is to combat a devastating disease called 'Parvo,' which harms and kills puppies. (This was the topic of my PhD which I completed in 2020). My work in veterinary pharmaceuticals, including creating Australia’s first national companion-animal disease-surveillance system, and my charity work, reflects my desire to helping animals and people alike.

Join me as I explore the intersection of property investing, wealth creation, health, science, and making a positive impact on the world. Together, we can build something great.
