Steve began his career in financial services aged eighteen working for NatWest. He then moved to
Barclays a few years later. It was with Barclays that he developed a passion for helping people with all
aspects of mortgages. He most enjoys the process of helping people secure a mortgage for their first
home or a move to that special forever home. He gained skills and experience working in these
environments but decided to start his own mortgage advice company. In his spare time Steve enjoys
spending family and he also plays a variety of sports.
