Like many others, there are those I love and things that count, while realising life’s a journey best spent with good people, doing things that matter and having some fun along the way. In my work-life, I have a strong feeling of commitment towards people being the best they can financially. Experience guides me towards a collaborative approach with clients, guiding and encouraging them towards sensible money risk-management.
