About

I’m an ATT & CTA qualified Tax Manager with over 10 years of experience in personal tax & private client tax roles.

I’m a specialist in complex tax issues for high-net-worth individuals, trusts, and estates.

I’m also highly experienced with tax cases with niche aspects that are rarely encountered, and I provide support with a range of complex tax issues and ad-hoc queries to ensure that clients receive the best advice and remain compliant.

I am excellent at researching tax opportunities and considering all the relevant factors to build planning packages that minimise tax and fit the lifestyles of our clients.

When it comes to Inheritance Tax, I offer solutions to ensure wealth passes smoothly to future generations.

In my spare time, I organise zombie walks for charity and even proposed to my wife at one of them!

Approach to work

I’m a highly dedicated manager with a strong desire to ensure high-quality work and provide a professional and efficient service to our clients.

In my daily work, I try to be proactive and forward-thinking when it comes to workflow management, solutions to problems and helping junior team members succeed with their projects.
