A bit about me professionally…

I’ve worked in the financial services industry since 2000, including several years spent working in the UK, before returning to Australia and joining Goldsborough in March 2014.

I’m happy to offer ongoing professional advice incorporating a wide range of financial planning strategies.

I’m passionate about providing you with comprehensive strategic advice – whether you’re just starting out on your wealth building journey, or are nearing retirement. 

As Goldsborough’s dedicated Risk Adviser, I aim to ensure you have the appropriate types and levels of insurance cover in place, to suit your own personal situation.

To help new clients really engage with recommendations, I like to use a whiteboard to draw a flowchart of how the strategy will work for you.  Feedback I have had from many clients is that this has been valuable in helping them understand the more complicated details

A bit about me personally…

I have two young children who keep me busy outside of the office.  When I do have some free time, I like to ride my road bike – for both fitness and fun.

As we transition from the working world into retirement, our financial perspectives undergo significant shifts. While we’re working, we have the reassurance of regular pay. This allows us to plan, save for one-off costs, and even extend our retirement timeline if something goes wrong. However, once we retire, the flow of a salary stops and we often face anxiety over the pool of money for retirement not being enough. Understanding the cognitive biases that affect us during these stages can help manage these transitions more effectively.
