After enjoying a successful 20-year career in the financial services industry, including a decade as a qualified mortgage advisor, I took the leap to start my took the leap to go self-employed three years ago. My goal was to create a better work-life balance and offer a more personalized service to clients navigating the often stressful process of securing a mortgage. I am delighted to have accumulated over 100 5-star reviews, verified through Google, showcasing the satisfaction of my customers. https://goo.gl/maps/rg7bkXUmW9ZuS9NS8 Renowned for my friendly and knowledgeable approach, I am known as a bit of a cheeky chappy in the industry. Clients appreciate my exceptional organizational skills, boundless energy, and proactive nature in liaising with lenders, estate agents, and solicitors. I take pride in going above and beyond for every client, working flexible hours to accommodate their needs and delivering a top-notch 5-star service. My world revolves around my nine-year-old daughter, Sophie, whose presence inspired me to pursue a self-employed path for better work-life integration. I also find immense joy in my pets - two dogs named Duke and Penny, as well as two cats named Floyd and Jimmy. And let's not forget my unwavering support for Queen’s Park Rangers!
