Professional Experience
- Current Role: As a Mortgage & Protection Adviser, I’m all about helping people find the right mortgage and making sure they’re protected too. It’s not just about numbers and paperwork; it’s about understanding what my clients need and being there for them. Whether it’s guiding them to the perfect mortgage deal or helping them choose the right protection plan, I’m with them every step of the way. I love to keep things simple, friendly, and personal, and I’m always just a WhatsApp message, email, or phone call away. That’s how I do things here at YesCanDo, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
- Previous Roles: For several years I worked at HSBC in investments and pensions before specialising in mortgages and protection.
Questions & Answers
Why did you choose a career in mortgage advising?
Both of my parents work within the financial industry so I naturally leaned towards this area of work once I left school. Throughout my career, I tried multiple different areas including investments and pensions but with mortgages and protection I was always drawn to the thought of helping people find their first home and taking them through the full journey. From there I completed my CEMAP within a month and started helping all clients with various scenarios including remortgages, home movers and buy to let.
What do you find most rewarding about your work?
The most rewarding thing about my job is being able to help clients navigate and simplialise what can be a very complicated and scary process, especially for first time buyers. Being able to help someone get their lovely new home and to know I was on their journey with them is the best thing. Even better, when I receive a message with a picture of them outside their door holding those keys, it’s very heartwarming.
How do you approach working with new clients?
My working styles change with various clients and I will always go with a way that is easy and comfortable for them. This can include whatsapp, email, phone calls or even zoom
What sets you apart from other mortgage advisors?
With being a young advisor I bring a fresh and new approach to Mortgage Advising and can relate to more clients on their journeys!

When I’m not busy at work, I love spending time with my sausage dog called Albert, going on long walks and enjoying the outdoors. I also cherish moments with my lovely friends and family, whether it’s a casual get-together or a festive celebration. And speaking of celebrations, I’m currently planning a wedding, so there’s always something exciting to keep me occupied. Life is never dull, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
