Echo Financial Advisors — Where Freedom is Learned

I didn’t start out in finance, I started in business. For years, I lived what most would call a comfortable life. I worked hard, earned well, and built stability for my family. But deep down, I knew something was missing, a sense of direction. I was progressing in my career, yet not truly growing my wealth.

It wasn’t until my forties that everything changed. I became obsessed with understanding how money really works, not just how to earn it, but how to make it serve a purpose. That discovery reshaped everything I believed about security, risk, and freedom.

Armed with that insight, I began building. Drawing on my background in leadership, business management, and technology, I combined real-world acumen with formal financial training to create something new, an advisory practice focused on clarity, structure, and independence.

That’s how Echo Financial Advisors was born, not out of theory or circumstance, but conviction. My mission is to help others experience the same transformation: from comfortable to confident, from motion to momentum, from income to independence.

Because financial freedom isn’t luck — it’s learned.

The Foundation: Business Operations

My path began on the floor of a busy retail supermarket, where I learned the practical, real-world lessons of managing people, operations, and profitability.

The Pivot: Entrepreneurial Tech

As an entrepreneur, my passion for problem solving led me to build my own advisory business, website, and develop an AI-driven Financial Health Check web application.

The Insight: Recognising the Gap

Through these experiences, I saw the need for a trusted partner who could help brilliant professionals translate their success into long-term personal wealth.

"I saw too many hard-working people feeling in the dark about money. My mission is to give each client a clear plan and the confidence to know they’re on the right track. Your success is my success.”
