What I'm looking for

I seek senior operational or commercial roles where I can lead partnerships, optimize procurement and drive growth in collaborative, outcomes-focused environments.

I am a transformative leader with extensive experience in scale-ups and large corporate environments, leading cross-functional and geographically dispersed teams to deliver change, efficiency and market-share growth.

I leverage data and relationships to solve complex business problems, renegotiating large contracts, optimizing operations to reduce COGS and increasing EBITDA while delivering new channel partnerships and revenue growth.

My background spans telecommunications, healthcare, and startups — holding executive roles that delivered procurement efficiencies, media spend optimization, successful M&A outcomes, and strategic partnerships with global brands.

I advise and mentor early-stage companies through my consultancy, serving as Executive in Residence at a government incubator, and continue to engage in board and advisory roles to drive innovation and measurable commercial results.
