​I launched Velarium Wealth in November 2021 after our successful application for FCA authorisation, fulfilling an aspiration to establish a reputable, ambitious and regulated company, with the ability to deliver a better quality of service and true independence. 

​

I achieved my Diploma in Regulated Financial planning in 2013, being assessed in areas including Regulation & Ethics, Investment Principles & Risk, Personal Taxation, Retirement Planning, Financial Protection and the Financial Planning Process. I then spent the next 8.5 years as a Senior Financial Adviser, building relationships with a wonderful group of clients, many of whom have become valued friends. 

​

I have worked in numerous sectors including Banking, Sales, Communications and Property Development, all of which have helped me understand how to deliver high quality customer service, and ensuring that my clients' needs are always my highest priority. 

 

I grew up in the Home Counties and studied English Literature (A), Psychology (A) and History (B) at A-Level, and achieved a 2:1 in History at the University of Exeter (a Top 10 UK University), being awarded a 1st for my Dissertation.

​

When not assisting my clients with their financial planning, I will be in the garden on a new DIY project, or out walking with my wonderful wife, two perfect daughters and our Border Collie.
