After graduating with a degree in History, Economics and Politics from Kingston University, London, Ali initially worked with the Marketing Department of the CWS (Cooperative Wholesale Society) identifying marketing opportunities, organising market research, and running tastings of the products as well promoting the sale of dairy products throughout the UK. After taking time off with her daughter Hannah Ali returned to work at MBNA bank in Chester, after which she started working for Waterstones buying in and marketing History and Military History books. Being paid to read for a living!

Ali enjoys working with a company that considers good customer service to be part of their DNA and working with such a dedicated group of people. She started work at Casterbridge Wealth in September 2019 and works closely with Matthew Cheek, our Managing Director as well as Lisa Cox Head of Operations and Victoria Stones. Ali helps maintain the website, write and edit content, post articles and videos as well as taking on the responsibility for client events.. Basically, anything and everything that the marketing department needs!

In her spare time Ali loves to read ( mostly history and classic crime fiction) and enjoys long walks to the beach with her lurcher Bess. She like most of the Casterbridge team enjoys eating out and a chilled glass of white wine in the sunshine.
