With a career in the Financial Services industry since 1994, I bring extensive knowledge, experience, and expertise as a Financial Adviser. I founded Border Finance Ltd in 2004, leading its growth to become a trusted name for clients throughout Dumfries & Galloway and beyond. I am a highly motivated individual ensuring I keep up to date with all tax and legislative changes allowing me to ensure my clients are able to make fully informed choices to assist them in achieving their personal and financial goals. I strive to continually improve and enhance the service I offer ensuring the continued growth of Border Finance Ltd, giving security and peace of mind to both my clients and staff. I'm honored to have been recognised as one of the UK’s Top Rated Independent Financial Advisers for the seventh consecutive year in VouchedFor’s 2025 survey, conducted in partnership with The Times and Sunday Times, with Border Finance Ltd maintaining a rating of 4.9 out of 5 from 1,615 client reviews as of November 2024. Beyond work, I’m an avid golfer and enjoy both playing and watching football. I’ve completed the Liverpool, Edinburgh, and London marathons, raising funds for Macmillan Cancer Support. I also enjoy holidays, fine dining, and socialising with friends and family.
