About Us
We're a husband-and-wife team with over forty years' combined experience in the industry. We pride ourselves in fostering rich and long-lasting relationships with our clients and we are passionate about what we do. In the office, we are supported by a small team of two trainee accountants and tax assistants as well as admin support.

Outside of work, we're kept busy by our daughter Esme and twins Oliver & Abigail and our dog Radley. We love to dine out, go to the theatre and travel. Barry is a keen footballer and a huge music fan, attending several concerts each month.

Professional and personable, we
always go the extra mile for our clients

My career started nineteen years ago in an accountancy practice. I went on to work as an accountant in two large financial institutions, supporting their commercial property teams. I was also a Finance Manager for the European region of a global steel company. I moved back into practice in 2014 when I started up my own business which I later merged with my husband.

I have worked in accountancy practices my entire career, from small firms to large, top-ten firms. In 2011, I started my own business. Managing a small portfolio of clients has enabled me to build lasting and meaningful relationships with everyone I do business with.
