I am an Associate Director at Hazlewoods specialising in Transaction Services. I have developed deep experience in supporting clients through the M&A journey, including vendor assist, vendor and acquisition due diligence, re-financing and working capital support.
Although much of my background has been shaped by more than ten years in Financial Services at a Big Four firm, where I worked on deals across insurance, asset management, FinTech and banking, my experience is broader than this. I also advise clients across professional services, technology, consumer, TMT and other sectors, giving me a flexible and sector agnostic perspective that allows me to support a wide range of transactions.
I work with private equity and corporate clients, bringing a clear and commercial approach to each engagement. I enjoy analysing complex financial data, identifying key value drivers and risks, and providing objective insights that help clients navigate transactions with confidence.
