About Me

I joined Glamorgan 1:1 Financial in September 2015. I enjoy building trusting relationships with clients, helping to navigate them through financial decisions and products which can often feel like a minefield.
I am a sport fanatic. I have always played football, rugby, cricket, surfed and more recently I have caught the golfing bug.
I am a member of Brackla Apostolic Church where I am heavily involved in strumming the guitar or slapping the bass in the worship band and working with the children and young people of the church and local community. Additionally, each Summer I have the privilege of running the children’s activities during the National Apostolic Church’s Annual Conference in Cheltenham.
