Neil studied at The University of Liverpool graduating with a BSc Honours degree in Marine Biology in 1991. After travelling the world extensively, he embarked on a successful career in teaching for 20 years. 2015 saw the opportunity for a career change and Neil joined the prestigious St. James’s Place Academy. The Academy training programme provided the necessary qualifications and client facing experience to gain his Diploma in Financial Planning. On graduating he was delighted to join Franklyn Financial Management, sharing the same principles and ethos of the benefits of face to face holistic financial planning as a means for clients to achieve their goals.

When not working, Neil enjoys both participating in and watching sport and still has a passion for travel. He enjoys spending time with his wife and son and sharing great food and wine with good friends.
