About
As an independent financial adviser rather than being restricted, I'm not tied to a particular provider or product range. This reduces conflicts of interest and supports a better consumer outcome for you. Before advising, I spent 15 years running a Multi-Asset Derivatives desk at a City hedge fund and later worked as an Equity Analyst while qualifying as a regulated adviser in 2019. The hands-on experience in the front line of investments has given me a deep, real-world understanding of markets and risk that extends well beyond the textbook theory most advisers lean on. I feel a sense of responsibility when I'm entrusted to look after the financial well-being of a client and their family, it's essential that I put their priorities and aspirations front and centre, and we work backwards from there. At the end of the process, they'll have complete clarity of where they are and what they need to do to get them where they want to be. I am certain that being happy and confident that your finances are in good order will allow you to focus on what matters to you. Our clients include individuals, families, start-ups, entrepreneurs, and businesses large and small – all looking to answer the same question, “Am I going to be okay?”.
