I have been working in this industry since I was in my early twenties. I have had business and finance running through my veins since studying the subject at University where I gained a strong grounding in economics, accountancy, strategic planning and financial risk to name but a few. I left university with a 2:1 BA Honours degree in Business Administration and went into my first job as a trainee stockbroker almost straight after. Through significant industry change, I studied hard and gained my diploma in Financial planning in 2012. I have a sound knowledge of the global markets, the economic/political climate and of pensions in particular. I choose to focus on Pensions and investments. I have an ability to 'think outside the box' and a natural talent for spotting an opportunity, which in turn can give the client a significant edge to their overall financial planning. My drive, ambition and interest in your financial matters, means you have someone you can fully trust to look after your finances and ensure only the very best advice is delivered. I serve a local community in Weymouth, Dorchester, Poole and Bournemouth. My clients mean everything to me, my business would be nothing without them and I treat them like family. Outside of the world of finance, I am a keen musician and singer songwriter and my time is spent writing songs and playing piano. I am also father to two little princesses whom keep me busy!
