About Me

I spent 10 years working for some of the UK’s leading investment management companies. I left because people who really needed help were often priced out of receiving quality opinions.

I hold the following qualifications and I am a full CISI member:

  • Chartered Wealth Manager Qualification (RDR Level 7)
  • Investment Advice Diploma (RDR Level 4)
  • BA (Hons) Business & Management, 2:1, Bath Spa University

My Core Services

What it entails:

  • Habit audit: spending triggers, mental models, money scripts.
  • Cashflow triage and a simple, repeatable budget you’ll actually use.
  • Accountability check‑ins and friction‑reducing systems (automation, defaults).

Learning goals: we’ll set 1–3 SMART objectives per month (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time‑bound), e.g. “Track spending weekly”, “Automate £200/mo to ISA”, “Cut delivery apps by 50%”.

What it entails:

  • Portfolio basics: risk capacity vs. risk tolerance, diversification, simple asset mix.
  • Tax wrappers and priority order: pensions, ISAs, and when to use each.
  • Decision hygiene: expected value thinking, position sizing, and avoiding headline traps.

Learning goals: e.g. “Define target allocation & rebalance bands”, “Set up monthly auto‑invest”, “Write a one‑page investment policy”.

What it entails:

  • 60–90 min sessions with live examples and Q&A.
  • Templates and cheatsheets you can reuse immediately.
  • Optional follow‑up clinic to review progress and unblock hurdles.

Learning goals: we co‑define objectives up front (e.g., “Build a starter portfolio”, “Create a 3‑bucket emergency plan”, “Draft a pension contribution plan”).
