I am a qualified Chartered Financial Planner and a Fellow of the Personal Finance Society (FPFS). I provide award-winning, fee-based, regulated independent financial advice tailored to you. Whether you're working hard, nearing retirement, or want to pass on wealth to loved ones, whatever your circumstances I can help. I am a Chartered Financial Planner at Mearns & Company, an Edinburgh based team of financial advisers and employee benefits consultants. We provide financial planning and employee benefits advice to our clients. Since 1994 we’ve been helping to change people’s lives for the better. We help individuals with their financial planning and employers with their employee benefits. We have been awarded the Gold Standard for Independent Financial Advice ten times since 2009. As a team of multi-award winning wealth management and employee benefits experts, we develop strategies to help you to achieve your goals. I have worked in all client teams across Mearns & Company since 2015. I love to travel and see different parts of the world. I try to visit at least one new country every year.
