About me
I grew up fascinated by the complexity of investment instruments and driven by a desire to understand how they work and how they can be used meaningfully to help others. That passion has never faded. Now, as a Chartered Financial Planner, I continue to pursue knowledge and excellence in financial planning. My next goal is to become a defined benefit pension transfer specialist, further deepening my expertise.
I’m very much intrigued by human behaviour and how it intersects with financial decision making. I enjoy exploring investment strategies and broadening my overall skillset, whether through formal study or personal curiosity. People say I’m analytical, but also easy to connect with, which I believe is key to building strong client relationships.
What I love about Harding Financial
The way we do things! Transparency, honesty, and always with the client’s best interests at heart. Talent flourishes here. I’ve never seen such a like-minded, cohesive, and talented team working together towards the best client outcomes.
We confidently implement all kinds of financial planning solutions, and the depth of expertise across the team is remarkable. No matter how simple or complex your needs are, we will hold your hand and work towards achieving your aspirations.
As I look towards the future
Continuous self-improvement is a cornerstone of my personal and professional life. I love blending analytical thinking with behavioural insight, and I’m always looking for ways to grow. Becoming a defined benefit pension transfer specialist is next on my list, and I’m excited to keep pushing the boundaries of what I can offer our clients.
At the weekend you’ll find me
Between playing squash, hitting the gym, flying with my private pilot’s license, and studying for my next qualification, I like to keep busy! I also enjoy watching Formula 1, reading, and occasionally exploring the world when time allows.
Want to buy me lunch?
I’m as picky with food as I am with my investment decisions! But you can never go wrong with Italian dishes, or a good chicken salad wrap.
