An avid seeker of challenging and wicked problems with a deep fascination for how people, business, technology and culture combine to revamp products, services or operating models,

I enjoy working with communities, leaders, new technologies and asking questions that challenge the status quo to build stronger, ethical businesses and more engaged communities. Ideally, I help organisations envision new futures where positive impact for people, the planet, and profit converge into impactful results that matter.

Also an active mentor and coach, I have a personal motto to inspire, be innovative, and promote success – especially to those around me. I focus on spreading happiness and expressing life through creating opportunities and supporting my community to aspire further in their own careers and lives.
