I'm responsible for the production of engaging, informative and inspiring copy that is used by the marketing team to communicate with existing and potential clients. Key to this is ensuring copy has the right tone of voice and is clear and easy to understand.

Thank you for looking at my profile. As a Personal Finance Copywriter, my aim is to provide engaging marketing material for financial advisers and planners working with The Yardstick Agency.

After six months helping launch Anahata Tees with my partner Caroline, I took an opportunity to join Lighthouse Financial Advice at an exciting stage in the company's development. Now owned by Quilter PLC - one of the UK's leading financial advice organisations - I was pleased to work with a company that has a culture of putting clients first, and helping those it works with meet their long-term goals.Good financial planning has to be holistic, as no one element of an individual's financial situation is separate from another. That's why I worked with clients to create strategies that aimed to provide long-term potential benefits to them, their loved ones, and generations to come.Through a professional yet friendly service, I worked to understand my clients so that I could provide appropriate solutions in a cost appropriate way. However, I have now decided to use my experience as a writer, journalist and researcher to look at the financial industry itself, and look at ways it can provider better service, more cost effective solutions and more growth potential for clients.

Working with clients to help them grow their personal wealth while at the same time protecting it for them, their loved ones, and future generations.Only by forming long term relationship based on trust, can those in the financial services truly provide the help and service they promise. For this reason, I work with clients, their families, and other professionals such as solicitors and accountants, to provide solutions that take into account every aspect of client's lives, their ambitions, and goals.Thanks to the support of the administration team at Rhodes Wealth Management, I deliver the level of service clients expect and advice they can trust, in a professional yet friendly manner.

After leaving the prestigious St. James's Place Academy, I established Tungstone Wealth Management. My aim was to work with clients to provide a personal and high quality service, enabling them to grow their personal wealth while at the same time protecting it for themselves, their loved ones, and future generations. For me, the only way to provide high quality advice is to develop a long term relationship based on trust.However, when the opportunity arose to work with a senior practice, which shared the same ethos as myself, I decided to take the opportunity, and benefit from the wealth of experience and support Rhodes Wealth Management has to offer.

As a writer for Countryside magazine, it would be easy to think I’m something of a ‘one trick pony’. But it’s not all about livestock, tractors and horses, as the magazine covers myriad topics from rural crime to air ambulances, home improvements to cooking, ghostly goings on in country homes to testing off road vehicles. One minute I’m doing an all-night milk round with a crime fighting milkman, the next I’m covering jargon heavy European policy, or attending press conferences where death by powerpoint is the norm. Whatever the subject though, my aim is always to engage the reader in innovative, easy to read and entertaining ways, using the unexpected, unusual or emotive angle to draw the reader in.In 2015, I was named Writer of the Year at the Independent Publisher Award Ceremony in London. The flagship ceremony is organised by the Professional Publishers Association, celebrates the successes of standalone magazine titles with a turnover of less than £10m.

While at Practical Action, then ITDG, I created media coverage for the organisation and liaised with the international, national and local media to secure coverage.This included securing coverage on the BBC's flagship News at Ten programme, as well as Radio Four's Today programme and various national print media.I also spearheaded publicity stunts, which included a troop of Elvis Presleys singing 'a little more action a little less conversation please' at the Make Poverty History march, which took place during the 2005 G8 summit.

Worcester, United Kingdom

As a news reporter, I used my extensive network of contacts to understand the issue of the day and identify stories for the paper. I was also responsible for interviewing people from all walks of life - including MPs, celebrities, local dignitaries and the man on the street - to get to the bottom of an issue, and inform the reader in an easy to read way.A major part of the job was to investigate claims and scrutinise 'facts' to get to the bottom of complex situations, and communicate my findings to the editor, and ultimately, the reader. This often involved asking probing questions and a large amount of tenacity, to establish the real story behind the spin.I also attended inquests, public hearings and press conferences to produce hard-hitting news stories on a wide range of topics.Alongside front page stories and exclusives, I had responsibility for the paper's show business page, and helped create its environmental page, which I also had responsibility for.
