What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead strategic PMO and business development initiatives, deploy applied AI, scale operations, and drive revenue growth in media and tech.

I am a freelance consultant focused on strategy, deployment and business development with deep expertise in PMO, revenue growth and applied AI for media and technology organisations. I have delivered 10+ projects across startups, agencies and platforms, combining creative and commercial approaches.

As a manager and founder I have led teams, rebranded organisations, restored cash flow and secured strategic partnerships and funding. Highlights include driving +10% revenue growth and doubling operating profit at an agency, contributing to €500K pre-seed fundraising, and designing an AI image-generation studio offering.

I build product and go-to-market strategies, run business development and partnership initiatives, and set up AI innovation processes and studios. I seek assignments where I can scale operations, deploy AI-driven workflows, and accelerate growth for audiovisual and tech ventures.
