Now in my third year at South West Business Finance, I joined the team as a Trainee Broker after 14 successful years in a variety of roles within the plumbers' merchant and bathroom sector. After joining SWBF, I enrolled in the NACFB Broker Academy and graduated with distinction.

Although my career did not begin in financial services, I had long wanted to move into the industry and relished the opportunity to make that transition with such an established and supportive team.

Since joining, I have developed my expertise in structuring and brokering complex finance, drawing on the wealth of knowledge and experience around me at SWBF. My previous career gave me a strong foundation in working closely with SME clients and building lasting relationships. I now apply that experience to ensure every client receives a professional, honest and high-quality service.

Outside work, I am a self-confessed sports enthusiast. Whether it is rugby, golf, cricket or football, I like to stay fit and active, and I still pull on the boots for the mighty Minchinhampton RFC whenever I get the chance.
