Description

I’m a business leader with a foundation in marketing and communications, rising to CMO within a decade. My career has been about building, scaling, and transforming — whether that means creating marketing functions from scratch, driving growth strategies, or steering professional services firms through change.

I’ve led business development programs that give professionals confidence to win clients, built inbound growth engines and driven integration and transformation after acquisitions. I thrive in environments where growth, clarity, and operational discipline are needed to take a business to the next stage.

While my background is rooted in brand and communications, my value lies in leadership, turnaround, and building functions that deliver commercial outcomes. I’m particularly drawn to growth-stage and professional services businesses, where I can combine strategic vision with hands-on execution to unlock transformation.
