I’ve been an accountant for more than 40 years, but don’t let that put you off.

I’ve worked in all types of accountancy firms in my career – a Big 4 firm where I qualified, and another as a consultant, then my own small practice, and then as a member of the Academy of Experts and partner for a top 50 medium-sized firm for the last 16 years.

Now after 40 years, I have ventured out on my own again, but not as a traditional accountant. At this stage in my career, I have the freedom to specialise in the three areas where my passions lie: Litigation Support, Coaching and Business Consultancy.

I’ve learnt over the years. You don’t have to just understand the numbers, you have to understand the people behind the numbers, and the complex interactions between them.

Clients seem to appreciate it. Maybe what brought you to this page would mean we’d get on well working together too…
