I’m a licensed financial adviser based in Cairns with a background in tax and business advisory. I’m passionate about financial education and believe the right advice, delivered clearly, can be life-changing. I’ve been told I have a knack for explaining tricky financial concepts in a way that just makes sense—giving clients the confidence to take control of their money journey.

Outside of advice, I run the Money Masterclass ‘Lunch and Learn’ sessions for local businesses, former casual lecturer at James Cook University (BX2036), and previously served as Chair of the Cairns Young Chamber. I also moonlight as a local musician, gigging around Cairns when I get the chance—so I know a thing or two about balancing passion, lifestyle, and long-term financial goals.

Whether you’re a professional, small business owner, planning for retirement or something in between, I bring structure, empathy, and a calm, jargon-free approach to help you feel in control of your financial future.

I’m so grateful to have found Ben to help me navigate my ongoing financial planning journey.

Having worked solidly over many decades and paid more attention to my work than my financial future, thankfully I found Ben some years ago and he has given me valuable and considered advice about how to best manage my overall financial position to achieve positive outcomes to date and I’m sure into the future.

Previous experience in dealing with the banking sector and providers of financial advice services left me with a sense of just being a number and coming away with no wise or tailored guidance on future planning. I’ve found Ben to have the personal qualities and ability to discuss an array of financial planning concepts in a clear, concise and trustworthy manner – be it superannuation, personal tax or investment management related.

Now retired, I do not think being financially confident in retirement can be underestimated and Ben has helped me achieve that confidence.

Ben’s professional experience and wealth of knowledge in the financial advising space is truly impressive.

Having been in one superannuation fund my whole career, and upon approaching retirement years, I thought it was time to get serious about understanding my potential financial needs ahead of when I actually did retire. Ben not only has incredible knowledge around all aspects of retirement planning but is endlessly patient with explaining a range of super and related concepts to someone who is not that financially literate. He does so enthusiastically, and in a plain-speaking and reassuring way. He is a big comfort when the world economy appears so tumultuous, and I am very happy with how my investments are being managed. I only wish I'd have known about Ben much earlier than I did.

My wife and I have been working with Ben for just over a year now. At the time, we were feeling unsure about our finances and knew we needed someone to guide us through the process. Thankfully, we found Ben and he’s been a huge part of helping us get on the right track.

He’s assisted us across a range of areas including superannuation, insurance, investing, property investment, borrowing, and tax strategies. Looking back, we only wish we’d started working with him sooner!

Ben’s a genuine guy and very easy to work with. We’ve felt supported and well-informed throughout the entire journey. Highly recommended.
