About me

The most important starting point is understanding the requirements of our clients. These can vary in the complexity of advice involved – an approach that enables us to then introduce the members of our network who are best placed to assist. This allows our clients to benefit from a comprehensive service suited to their broader needs, with input from people who are experts in their individual areas. We demonstrate a deeper insight and a more empathetic approach to the range of emotional and pragmatic decisions our clients need to make when managing their wealth and investments across their personal or business life-cycle.

Background/Experience

I have over two decades of experience in private banking and wealth management, spanning three continents. Before joining Investec in 2008, I spent 6 years at GAM as a Portfolio Director where I focused on the management of globally-invested, multi-asset portfolios for an international spread of private clients. I later moved to Spencer House Capital Management where I was responsible for the firm's business development.

My education in South Africa culminated in a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of the Witwatersrand and an LLB from the University of Stellenbosch. I qualified as an attorney before moving to London in 1999. I am a Chartered Fellow of the Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment and am registered with the Financial Conduct Authority in the UK.

My interests

I am a keen photographer, which goes hand in hand with my passion for travel and the outdoors. Closer to home, I can be found making the most of all that London has to offer and on a weekend you will find me walking London as I explore her museums, markets, and restaurants.
