Paul Hogg
I first worked with Sarah when she was starting her paraplanning company. She has a great level of technical knowledge and an exceptional understanding of the industry. Sarah has a fantastic sense of humour which I am sure helps account for the speed at which her company has grown as she continues to establish strong relationships with her clients. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to work with a knowledgeable and empathetic paraplanner
Paddy Kerwin
