About
You have life goals - I am here to help you achieve them. I’m an independent financial planner based in the South West and a member of the Hartsfield Financial Planning team. My purpose is to improve your financial wellbeing by building an achievable financial plan to help you reach your goals. That could mean investment advice, retirement planning, help with pensions, inheritance tax planning or finding the best form of insurance to ensure your family finances are protected should life take an unexpected turn. I offer a fresh perspective on traditional financial advice. I love getting to know new clients and always provide a down-to-earth and relatable service. I will put financial products and technical expertise in the context of you as an individual, put you in control of your finances and give you the freedom to pursue what matters most to you. Whether you are a business owner, a professional, planning for retirement or already at retirement - I would love to hear from you.
