Financial Planning Consultant in Hampshire
My financial services career spans over 25 years and includes senior roles in globally renowned Wealth Management and Insurance multinationals. Being both qualified as a chartered accountant and as a financial planner, I pride myself in providing professional, holistic financial advice and building long lasting relationships with my clients.
I really delight in helping people grow and protect their wealth, and seeing them realise their individual/family aspirations and retirement dreams. With my financial expertise, combined with Quilter’s award-winning proposition and platform, your wealth will be in safe hands, giving you peace of mind over both your finances and your legacy.
In the UK, there are around 3.3 million pension pots that are considered as ‘lost’, containing an average of around £9,500 per pot*. Nobody wants to be missing out on money they have built up in a pension, but there’s good news - this kind of financial hit is completely avoidable.
This one might seem obvious, but it’s easy to lose track of your pension pots, where they are, and what they’re doing. If you make a note of your pension providers, and check your pot(s) regularly, you’re far less likely to lose one of them over time.
Your investment allocation is where and how you’re investing your pension. Often, people will just use their pension provider’s default setting. But this might not actually be right for your retirement goals and risk profile. So, it’s a good idea to revisit this every few years.
If you’ve had a windfall recently, like a pay rise, bonus, or inheritance, putting a portion of it into your pension is a good idea. Not only is it tax-efficient, but you’ll be glad when your retirement comes around.
As an adviser, my role is to help you get all of this done simply, with all the facts and information you need. That might be helping you review your risk profile, consolidating old pension pots, or making a plan to help you retire early. Investing can help your money grow over time, but the value of investments can go down as well as up.
If that sounds good to you, please get in touch.

My clients are at the very heart of my advice service. Together we shape a bespoke plan, personalised to their specific objectives, which evolve over time as priorities change. I make complex subjects clear and comprehensible, so informed and important decisions about one’s wealth can be made throughout life’s exciting and sometimes unpredictable journey.
Hampshire based most of my life, having also lived in London and Australia. Outside of work, my biggest lifelong passion is travel and experiencing new cultures, landscapes and cuisines. At the weekend, I enjoy socialising with friends and family, especially over meals out and dinner parties. I am a keen cook, and love trying new recipes, and also sticking to our family favourites.
Hobbies include putting my ‘gold’ rated mystery diner status to use and keeping active via walking, yoga and the gym. I also have an interest in property development, having done several refurbishments over the years, utilising the tax benefits of the limited company I set up.
As a mother of two very active tweenagers, I fully appreciate life is busy, so I am happy to offer meetings out of hours, and also face to face for those local.
