The thrill of creating the right financial strategy for my clients is what gets me up in the morning!

For over twenty years now I have worked within the financial services industry. The majority of my time was spent at Westpac and Macquarie Bank in a variety of roles, with responsibility for providing both specialist banking and investment advice to high net worth individuals and firms.

This experience has helped me develop a specialist knowledge in banking and financial markets that allows me to tailor structured finance and investment plans so my clients can achieve their financial goals sooner … it’s thrilling and has me raring to go each day.

On the educational side, I completed my Masters of Business and Administration at the University of Adelaide, have a Diploma of Financial Planning, am a graduate with the Australian Institute of Company Directors and hold a membership with the Finance Brokers Association of Australia Limited (FBAA).

My home life is busy with five delightfully energetic offspring, Hannah, Ollie, Max, Eddie and Maeve; while my gorgeous wife Megan keeps our home life ticking along seamlessly. In our spare time we enjoy regular holidays down at Goolwa, and for us a great day is filled with fishing and enjoying all the activities the beach has to offer.

My grandkids call me Big Pop!

Right from the start of my career as an adviser in the financial services industry way back in 1980, I’ve always been driven by the desire to really help people. It’s enormously satisfying to be able to play a part in, and witness clients accomplishing great financial and lifestyle outcomes.

When you get to know me, you’ll realise I really walk the talk. We all work hard and we want to be working hard for something meaningful, and that’s why it’s been such a privilege to work with my clients over this time and guide them in achieving their goals and dreams at each stage of their lives. Life is to be enjoyed, not endured!

I am now taking some of my own advice and slowing down to a shorter working week. This means I get to spend more time water skiing and relaxing on the River Murray with my wife, two children, four gorgeous grandchildren and my great friends, and every weekend is a long one, you’ve got to be happy with that!

A positive difference

I joined the financial advice profession because it would provide me with an opportunity to make a positive difference in people's lives. After nine years, I feel incredibly privileged to be in a position where I can advise my clients on how to improve their financial position, whilst empowering them to make important life decisions with confidence. It’s the best part of my role.

Having grown up in Strathalbyn, I love that I am working where I can give back to the community that helped shape me. I get a real sense of value out of being involved in my local area, particularly through my active participation on sporting committees for both the Alexandra & Eastern Hills Cricket Association and the Strathalbyn Football Club.

On the weekends, I enjoy spending time with my lovely wife and our fast-growing daughter, who was born mid-2024. When I get the chance, I enjoy playing a round of golf, and am a bit of a test cricket tragic. I also appreciate a good drop of red wine, especially when it's shared over a delicious meal with friends.
