Biography: 

From my early teens I’ve always loved to work; I’d worked in a variety of trades and part time roles until eventually heading off to University seeking direction. I ended up in the world of asset-based lending where I structured funding for clients of both banks and independent funders.

Not the typical career choice for a forensic science graduate however somewhere I realised I had far more interest in people and business, and ultimately found my motivation helping them succeed.

I took an opportunity to expand my repertoire and became a credit insurance broker which gave me a deeper understanding of how the credit insurance world works, how valuable it can be for clients and all it can do to support a business.

My time spent in these two disciplines means I have accumulated the knowledge to help clients get access to funding and protect them against the risk of bad debt.

I’ve now got the opportunity to impart this knowledge and share the benefit of time served in these institutions towards one goal, to make entrepreneurs businesses even more successful.
