Thank you for looking at my profile. I am committed to providing the highest level of customer service and the best advice to my clients and have been working in the financial services industry for the last 25 years. I work from our offices in Devon Square, Newton Abbot as an Independent financial adviser within Strategic Solutions Financial Services, a Chartered firm of financial planners based on the south coast. Whether your enquiry is on a personal or corporate basis I understand that the major financial decisions you make will have significant and life-changing consequences to your future. It is therefore essential that you seek professional independent financial advice from someone you can trust. The Chartered title assures you of my commitment to the highest standard of customer excellence and professionalism. I firmly believe in the importance of working together and building relationships with my clients to help them fulfil and achieve their financial objectives. Strategic Solutions was awarded 'Investment Adviser firm of the year' by Moneyfacts in 2018, 2017, 2015 and was shortlisted in 2016. An initial meeting is provided without charge, at this meeting I will provide a full written explanation of my costs. I will then take the time to find out about you and your goals. I can prepare and analyse recommendations, assessing the benefits whilst also considering the costs. My final financial planning proposals are well-researched and constructed on the basis of what is suitable for my clients. I have one son and in my spare time I enjoy city breaks and live music events.
