I am an experienced and approachable Mortgage and Protection Adviser and Director at Vista Financial Management Limited (https://www.vfmg.co.uk). I have been with Vista since we founded the business in 2007, guiding my clients through the whole process from finding the property of their dreams, to getting handed the keys on moving-in day. Having previously worked for the Skipton Building Society in their mortgage department, I have over 15 years' experience, as well as earning my qualification as Independent Mortgage Adviser CeMAP – DipFA in 2009. I am passionate about helping out in any way I can, ensuring that my clients understand all of the various types of mortgages available to them so that they’re in an informed position to pick the right one. I work with first-time buyers, home movers and current homeowners, helping educate people looking to move up the housing ladder and those seeking to remortgage their homes, offering impartial advice and guidance about deposits and mortgage rates. I also provide advice regarding personal and business insurance, specialising in mortgage, family and income protection, along with shareholder, relevant life and key man insurance for businesses. I will always take the time to put clients at ease with my knowledge and experience, getting to know and understand their individual circumstances so that I can offer the very best tailored advice. Outside of work, I am an avid sports fan, (I have a degree in Sports Science), so you’ll often find me watching the game or enjoying quality time with my family, travelling and socialising as well as beach walks in Bamburgh with my two black Labradors.
