Peter has worked in a range of financial services roles for several market leading organisations for over 30 years. Since becoming a financial planner in 2007, Peter has striven to ensure his down-to-earth and plain English approach to clients is matched with the highest level of technical capabilities. Peter was one of the first in Australia to obtain a Masters in Financial Planning and has since achieved Certified Financial Planner® status and is a member of the Financial Planning Association of Australia.

We are all busy people and time poor these days, however Peter will help you through the many financial obstacles life presents. By using his experience and knowledge in superannuation, retirement income products, investments and social security, Peter will make things seem simple and achievable.
