TaxPerspective Modern and Flexible Tax Advice

I have 20 years tax experience, in London and in Yorkshire, working for KPMG, Andersen, PwC and Grant Thornton as a Chartered Tax Adviser. During my time at those prestigious firms, I advised a wide variety of clients ranging from authors, entertainers, internet entrepreneurs, self employed consultants and farmers to major international law firms and large plcs. It was, however, time for a change and TaxPerspective was born.

I live with my husband and two beautiful daughters in the York area. When I’m not speaking to my clients or poring over tax legislation I can be found chasing after a 2 year old, baking chocolate brownies (yum!), attending school governor meetings or running the WI group that I set up with a friend in October 2009. As a family we love our annual skiing holiday – last year involved a trip to see Father Christmas in Lapland – and generally having fun together.

One of my big passions in life is to help people to realise their full potential in their business by helping them tap into their own enthusiasm. This may seem at odds with being a tax adviser but the two things are inextricably linked. This is where I can provide the value to my clients that the bigger firms often cannot. Sometimes my clients are so busy doing what they do to make a living that they don’t take the time to step back and remember why they started in the first place. My clients have often told me that they go away from a meeting with me feeling inspired and empowered; ready to face the challenges of their business with a renewed vigour.
