About

With over two decades of experience in the financial services industry, I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the sector’s most respected names—including HSBC, where I began in 2001, as well as The Prudential, Chase de Vere, and St. James’s Place. This breadth of experience has shaped my comprehensive understanding of financial planning and client service. My approach to financial advice is rooted in building genuine, long-term relationships. I believe that truly understanding my clients—their goals, concerns, and values—is the only way to provide advice that is both meaningful and effective. By developing this trust, I’m able to help clients create financial life plans that provide security today and flexibility for the uncertainties of tomorrow. I offer expert advice across a wide range of areas, including pensions, investment planning, inheritance tax planning and protection. Outside of work, I’m passionate about travel and the theatre. I also cherish spending time with my grandson and walking Miss Maple, my spirited miniature dachshund.
