After graduating with a B.A. in Economics, Chris started his career in his home town of London as a day trader. However, his heart strings pulled him to Peterborough to be close to his then girlfriend, Sarah.
He joined Herod Financial Services as our investment administrator supporting Kevan. Chris’s specialty is financial analysis and he is a tremendous asset in the analysis and development of investment portfolios. His detailed insight is invaluable to many of our established clients who are working with more sophisticated financial vehicles. Chris also enjoys working with young people helping them establish their financial future.
Chris and Sarah recently bought a home in Peterborough. They enjoy camping and are finding the joys of home ownership take up the rest of their time.
