I have been working within the Equity release industry since 2010, which has given me time to gain a wide range of experience and a high level of product knowledge. I have a had the privilege of being able to advise clients from many different backgrounds and have seen equity release enrich people's lives in many ways. However I also recognise that whilst the industry has come along way over the years, with new products and features offering never before seen flexibility, it isn't the correct product for everyone. I pride myself on giving honest and straightforward advice. On a personal note, I am a father of two and enjoy walking and landscape photography.
