I joined SWBF as a partner in 2016, following a 20-year career as a Commercial Relationship Director with a high-street bank. During that time, I developed a real passion for building trusted client relationships and helping businesses find the right funding solutions.

Today, as a commercial finance broker with SWBF, I work closely with business owners to understand their goals, challenges and funding requirements. I then use my experience and knowledge of the commercial finance market to identify solutions tailored to their individual circumstances.

Strong relationships are at the heart of what I do, both with clients and lenders. With an increasingly broad range of finance providers and products available, it is important to understand the options thoroughly and match each client with the right lender.

Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my family and socialising with friends and colleagues. Having coached rugby for 13 years, I now concentrate on supporting Bath Rugby. I am also a lifelong Everton supporter, which has taught me plenty about resilience, patience and dealing with disappointment.
