I am primarily based in Norwich and provide Mortgage and Protection advice. I carry out both face-to-face and telephone-based advice from a range of locations and provide cover for the rest of the team as and when required. I've worked in the financial services industry for almost 20 years starting with sub-prime lenders moving on to an advising role with NatWest & Royal Bank of Scotland, before switching to mortgage broking for Mortgage Advice Bureau in November 2015. I pride myself on providing friendly and easy to understand advice and assistance to a wide range of clients across Norfolk & Suffolk, and by telephone to clients in the rest of the UK. I take a common-sense approach with lenders and particularly enjoy negotiating with lenders and insurers to find a solution when an application doesn’t necessarily meet strict criteria. I enjoy European city breaks, most recently going to the Christmas markets in Germany last December. I have a 2 year old dog named Murphy who reluctantly takes me for a walk once a day, and spend a lot of my spare time running as I take on a marathon each year - the next one being Brighton in 2024.

Because we play by the book we want to tell you that… Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage. There may be a fee for mortgage advice. The actual amount you pay will depend upon your circumstances. The fee is up to 1% but a typical fee is 0.3% of the amount borrowed.
