Areas of expertise
As an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA) I can select the best provider and the best product from the whole market to suit your individual needs. I have over 20 years’ experience in Financial Services and believe in treating people how I would like to be treated myself.
Sandringham’s user friendly process will allow me to spend more time looking after you and your financial needs and less time doing admin. Our Wealth Platform will give you 24/7 online access to your financial information.

Outside of work I like to stay fit and love the outdoors, enjoying kayaking and cycling. I also enjoy wildlife photography as I love getting out in the countryside to relax.

Financial advice is about so much more than money. To me it’s about helping my clients achieve the future they want for themselves and their families. Helping you realise financial security and put your hard-earned money to work is what drives me as a Sandringham Partner.
During my time as a financial adviser, I’m proud to have helped people from all walks of life. A common misconception is that advice is reserved for the wealthy, but you don’t have to have millions in the bank to benefit. I’ve helped people from diverse backgrounds and professions reach their goals. It’s a big part of why I love what I do.
Whether you’re just getting started or a seasoned investor – financial advice could help you get more from your money. I start by understanding your needs and financial ambitions – this might be working towards a particular goal, or helping loved ones down the line.
It’s important we consider things like your ability to make regular payments, any one-off investments you could make, your level of comfort regarding market volatility and risk and how long you’re looking to invest for. I can then recommend the investment products that I believe best match your aims and expectations.
Have you considered what you want your retirement to look like? Most people accept that it’s generally a good idea to save into a pension. But will it give you enough to live the life you want in retirement? The earlier you lay the groundwork, the better. Effective retirement planning could mean you’re financially better off and have more time to spend on the things you love.
It’s never too late to put plans in place or discuss your options. I can look at your situation and recommend which steps to take, based on where you are in life, to help make your income last in retirement.
We can’t predict what life has in store for us, for better or worse. But we can prepare ourselves. If you become unwell and can’t work, you may not be able to pay your bills and your family could be left in financial difficulty. I can help you create a protection plan that might include income protection, life cover and critical illness cover. Knowing you’ve taken out financial protection to take care of things could mean one less worry for you and your loved ones.
Planning ahead for long-term care is important, and the likelihood of needing care increases as you age. I can help you understand the services available to you, like nursing homes or home health care.
With people living longer than ever before, I can help you understand how long-term care services could affect your assets and income.
Buying a home is likely to be the biggest purchase you’ll ever make. It’s a big step and could be much easier to take if you’re well-informed and get some good advice. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, moving on, downsizing, or even buying a second home, I can help you find the mortgage that suits you best. And working with a range of carefully selected lenders, I could help to improve your chances of being accepted knowing which lenders are most appropriate for your circumstances.
