Owner & Founder

Knowledgeable

Determined

I started my financial career working for one of the UK’s largest banks. After 5 influential years I pursued a personal goal as a music producer in the early 90’s where I enjoyed success before deciding my future was in financial services. 

Embarking on a new career in business finance with another of the UK’s largest banks, I gained 5 years of experience working with small to medium sized business and underwriters to provide lines of credit, before setting myself a new challenge within the personal finance market.

I passed the Certificate in Financial Planning and Certificate in Mortgage Advice & Practice in 2005 and started as a mortgage adviser within an estate agency. This has given me a valuable insight as to how estate agency operated & also about property too.

My philosophy has always been to do my best for the client and to assist as appropriate during the whole process. Often this means plenty of phone calls to solicitors & accountants for example to give the best possible & timely outcome for the client.
