It seems as if I have been studying and writing qualification examinations for most of my life. My original background was as a health scientist, helping people in sickness, and I earned many qualifications in that area. I later trained as a financial advisor because I was interested in applying my scientific principles to finance, to better help people avoid the many pitfalls in trying to achieve financial security.
I respect that qualifications are important, in addition to experience. I come fully qualified, so that you don't have to be. In addition to the qualifications listed below, my professional associations specify that I complete at least 30 hours of continuous formal education every year, to keep my knowledge fresh and up-to-date. I also hold all the required government issued licenses.

We greatly appreciate Dan Clark's expertise as our financial advisor. He has been invaluable at explaining investment choices and guiding us according to our needs; for this reason these investments have consistently done better than they had performed at other financial institutions.
