With over two decades of leadership, I drive growth through digital innovation and AI. Spanning industries like banking, fintech, travel, utilities, and real estate, I craft strategies that seamlessly connect technology, products, and business goals to deliver scalable, impactful results.
I have consistently driven innovation, launched several new ventures, and managed all aspects of product and proposition development, go-to-market strategies, marketing, digital tech delivery, and sales.
Notably, I led product and proposition development for Charcolonline, the world’s first online mortgage broker. My digital expertise has optimised e-commerce sales for companies like Thomas Cook, MyTravel, Airtours, Going Places, Homeserve, and Bradford & Bingley, achieving exponential year-over-year growth of 200% to 500%. This expertise has led to invitations to 10 Downing Street to share my views on e-commerce and present evidence on the digital economy at Westminster.
I build strong teams, coach, and thrive on mentoring personal growth. From a sporting perspective, I have competed in two Touch Rugby World Cups and am a certified Level 2 rugby coach.
