I like that Investec is a client focused, deal driven environment – where bespoke solutions, fast decision making and client service are the hallmarks of our offering.

My interests

I play tennis on the weekends for exercise, fresh air and to spend time with family. I’m an avid motoring enthusiast and consume large quantities of motoring related media content, on a variety of mediums including social media, magazines, television and internet. I enjoy reading, in particular current affairs and biographies.
