Who do I work with?

My clients for over 25 years have come from a wide variety of sectors including large tech, professional services, investment professionals and successful entrepreneurs in the media and creative fields.  Despite the obvious differences in profession, they all share one thing in common which is an understanding that working with a trusted financial planner to give them insights into their own and their families wealth is an invaluable tool in planning for the future.

It’s a privilege to work with so many great clients and I’ve always enjoyed finding solutions for them in both the good times and the occasional bad times that life brings. My aim has and always will be to repay the trust they show in HFMC and me with energy and passion on finding tailored and bespoke solutions specifically designed for them.

About me?

I confess that my career in financial services took me a little by surprise, as an eager engineering undergraduate at Warwick University I had anticipated a life in manufacturing.  However, the bright lights of the city loomed and on graduating I began working as a financial planner initially for a boutique IFA before joining HFMC to set up our central London office.  While we have grown substantially since those early years, I’m pleased to say that the client focused culture remains as strong now as it was then.

On a personal level, having married into a French-Greek family there are no end of wonderful large family gatherings with my wife and son Alex to attend.  Passions include playing the guitar, song writing, wood turning, padel tennis and an old black cab that I drove to Athens from London in my youth.
