I am a financial adviser based in Dundee, working across both the Dundee and Alness offices to support clients throughout Scotland. My role as a financial planner is centred around providing clear, expert advice and creating tailored strategies that help individuals and families achieve financial security and long-term peace of mind. Financial planning is more than selecting products — it’s about building a personalised roadmap that supports your goals at every stage of life.
Much of my work involves guiding clients through significant financial decisions, such as securing the most suitable mortgage, whether they’re purchasing their first home, remortgaging, or investing in buy-to-let properties...
I aim to make this process as straightforward and informed as possible by explaining the differences between fixed and variable rates, repayment options, and associated costs.
Protection planning is another key area of focus. I help clients assess their insurance needs — from life cover and critical illness to income protection — ensuring they and their families are safeguarded against life’s uncertainties. My advice is designed to provide both practical support and peace of mind, with a clear explanation of policies, benefits, and potential exclusions.
Pension planning is essential at every career stage, and I assist clients in reviewing existing pension arrangements, making the most of contributions and tax efficiencies, and forecasting retirement income. I also help demystify the state pension and explore drawdown options to ensure a comfortable and confident transition into retirement.
When it comes to investments, my approach is clear and strategic, using diversified portfolios aligned with each client’s goals and risk tolerance. I support tax-efficient investment planning and can offer ethical and sustainable options where appropriate, all within a structure designed to grow and protect wealth.
Ultimately, my financial planning approach is holistic and ongoing. I work closely with each client to understand their short-, medium-, and long-term goals, developing bespoke plans and regularly reviewing progress to adapt as life and legislation evolve. Working with a regulated financial planner means receiving advice that is tailored, compliant, and focused entirely on your success.
