My role
I joined Lovewell Blake as a Senior Tax Consultant, based in the Norwich office, in 2020, managing a portfolio of individuals, farming partnerships and landed estates, and providing technical support to other team members. I specialise in income and capital taxes planning, as well as making sure that planning is reported correctly, as part of our personal tax return service.
About me
I present an annual tax lecture on the ethics of tax planning to accounting students at UEA. I am a Fellow of both the CIOT and ATT, and am a member of the CIOT’s personal tax technical sub-committee and the ATT’s examinations steering group. I started working in tax by accident but have now been doing it for nearly thirty years! I have worked for three of the “Big Four” firms accountants and then for Grant Thornton, always based in Norwich. I have always been a keen supporter of the professional tax bodies and am a former Council member of CIOT and ATT, and a past ATT President. Outside of work, I am a big film fan and am hoping to start a Masters in Film Studies.
