Michael first gained an interest in finance while working for Barclays, which was his first job following university. After spending some time working for Barclays Stockbrokers in Glasgow, he returned to the Northeast to take a job within the Teesside office of Wise Speke.

During his time with the company, Michael progressed to the position of Divisional Director, firstly while in the Teesside office and again after moving to the Newcastle office in 2014. Over the past two decades, Michael has built strong relationships with all his clients and prides himself on providing a high quality service, which he is very keen to continue following his move to Raymond James, Monument.

After spending 10 years living in North Yorkshire, Michael is now back living in Newcastle. When he isn’t helping clients, he enjoys traveling with his partner, both locally and further afield.
