“Clients deserve the best – and I’ve never stopped proving it.”
Growing up, I watched my parents navigate their finances without much guidance. Nobody sat down with them to explain the benefits of investing, tax efficient ways of doing so, and most importantly, when they could actually retire, and plan for the future. That gap – that quiet lack of knowledge in so many households – is what first drew me to financial services
After graduating, I joined a major bank, where I spent 15 years in roles ranging from Mortgage Manager to Branch Manager. It was there I saw something clearly: the biggest difference in people’s financial lives came from those who were meeting a financial adviser. I qualified as an adviser in 2018, and since then I’ve never stopped pushing myself further.
I’m now a Fellow of the Personal Finance Society (FPFS) – a designation held by fewer than 5% of financial advisers in the UK. That same drive shapes how I work with clients. I don’t just want to understand your pension or your investments – I want to understand you. What gets you out of bed. What you’re building towards. Behind every business and every individual, it’s nearly always about family, the next goal, the life you’re working towards. Once I understand that, everything else follows.
I work with owner-managed businesses, professionals and high-net-worth individuals, helping them with holistic wealth management – protecting them and their loved ones, from investment advice to advice regarding your pensions and Inheritance Tax (IHT) planning. My approach is to give you all your options, clearly and honestly, so you can make informed decisions with confidence. The gap I saw in my parents’ household all those years ago is still there for many people. My job is to close it – one client, one conversation at a time.
Outside of work, I’m married with two daughters and a keen runner – I’ve completed the London Marathon and numerous half marathons. With two young children, that’s about as far as my hobbies stretch for now.
