I believe financial planning is about more than just the numbers. Money is simply the tool that allows us to do more of the things that we enjoy, and less of the things that we don't. My focus is on helping people build wealth, live well, and retire with confidence. I mainly work with families and business owners who are within 10 years of, or already in retirement. Everyone should have the opportunity to retire with financial security and independence. Typical questions I help answer ❓ Is my money working as hard as it can for me? ❓ How much do I need to save? ❓ Am I on track? ❓ Do I have enough? ❓ When can I afford to retire? ❓ How do I protect my money against market downturns and other risks? ❓ How can I create a sustainable retirement income? What my clients receive ✅ Personalised, Independent financial advice to help make informed decisions. ✅ Confidence to live life purposefully and with intent. Life is for living - money is just a tool! ✅ Ongoing coaching and advice, from a trusted partner with your interests at heart. What I can help with ✔ Developing a financial plan to meet your goals. ✔ Investment & tax optimisation. ✔ Building Wealth. ✔ Preparing for retirement. ✔ Managing investments and pensions in retirement. ✔ Succession Planning for Families. ✔ Ongoing planning, advice, and monitoring.
