“I give 100% and never anything less – and get to the answer quickly.”

“I have some international experience and have defended a number of offshore entities, including some based in Jersey, Guernsey, Gibraltar, and the British Virgin Islands.

I give 100% and never anything less – and I get to the answer quickly. I think it’s my commerciality, strategic thinking, and knowledge of the issues that allows me to do this – and provide value for money.

I am careful speaking to clients to understand their needs, business, objectives - what they need, how they need it and when – so I can ensure I always deliver to requirements.”
