I graduated with a 2:1 Law & Business Degree from Staffordshire University and joined RSM Tenon (formerly RSM Bentley Jennison) in 2008 and sat my Association of Taxation Technician exams whilst working in the Tax Department. In 2012 I moved into industry as Operations & Accounts Manager for a company in the Care Sector before moving into the Nuclear Industry in 2014 where I lived in the beautiful Lake District.
Through the experience gained in industry & working with owner managed businesses I am able to understand the realities that business owners face & offer practical solutions and support. I pride myself on being approachable & knowledgeable and like to develop close working relationships with my clients. I focus mainly on personal tax and business support & consultancy through the use of Xero cloud accounting and add ons. My favourite industries to work with are Hair & Beauty and Construction.
In my spare time I enjoy travelling, eating out and spending time with my family.
DISC Profile
DISC focuses on individual patterns of external, observable behaviours and measures the intensity of characteristics using scales of directness and openness for each of the four styles: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientious. Using the DISC model, it is easy to identify and understand our own style, recognise and cognitively adapt to different styles, and develop a process to communicate more effectively with others.
