About Zoe
I’ve been a personal finance writer since 2018 after a small stint as a Management Accountant at a pizza factory, where I found a love for spreadsheets and data.
I’ve covered credit, banking and investments, the latter of which I specialised as a Senior Writer at finder.com/uk. I’ve been quoted in several publications, including The Motley Fool, The Huffington Post and This Is Money.
In 2023 I was named in the Standout 45 in the Women in FinTech Powerlist from Innovative Finance. I’ve got a Diploma for Financial Advisers (DipFA) from The London Institute of Banking and Finance and a BA in English Literature from Swansea University.
When I’m not writing about money or creating a spreadsheet, you can find me at my local ice rink where I recently skated in a performance of Alice in Wonderland on Ice.
