Hi, I’m Ross.
For as long as I can remember I have enjoyed helping other people. It is that satisfied “feel good” feeling that you are doing something to benefit someone other than yourself. It has been my fascination with human psychology and behavioral economics/finance that has led me to choose a career where I get to help others, manage, understand and simplify one of the most important aspects of their lives which is their finances.
I am a qualified financial planner and own and run my own business, More Time Financial. I specialise in helping my generation (Gen Y) to make smarter decisions with their money. The majority of my days are spent working with my clients to help them understand what their financial and lifestyle goals are and then putting a plan in place to help them work towards them, as well as helping to navigate some of the major life events that we all face as young adults.
