Skills & Areas of Advice
Qualifications
I started in Financial Services at the end of the 1980s as a single company tied adviser before spending around 7 years as a field compliance manager from the latter part of the 1990s. Having missed the client-facing and advising side of things however, I returned as a financial adviser around 16 years ago before moving to Beals Wealth Management in 2014.
I work with a wide range of clients, providing advice on their Investment, Retirement, Residential and Buy to Let Mortgages, Equity Release, and Protection needs and requirements.
With so many years in the industry, I have clients both locally, but also flung far and wide across the country who she continues to look after. “It has been exciting and rewarding to see how my clients’ lives have progressed, and being able to have been a part of all aspects of their financial planning needs has provided the pleasure of seeing the outcome of that advice months, years, or even decades later!”
Enjoying all aspects of financial planning, I particularly pride myself on my ‘hand-holding’ support to First Time Home Buyers, as they negotiate their way towards collecting the keys to their new home. “Even after all these years, I still get a huge buzz every single time my clients secure their mortgage offer, and then collect the keys to their new home.”
