About Me

I've faced the late nights, the early mornings, the 'do-or-die' moments that define startup life.My approach is practical, tactical, and informed by years of real-world experience. I'm not just about giving advice; I'm about providing solutions that I've seen work first-hand, sharing insights that only come from having been on the inside.I love helping founders and startups grow and solve problems, using technology as a key lever. My goal is to make your business more efficient, more innovative, and ultimately, more profitable.Whether it’s building models, automating operations or helping to bring a new product to life, my mission is to help you navigate the path to success, just as I have done with my own ventures.I love technology and am an early adopter, always up on the latest trends and tools.I love efficiency and will look for any way to automate and improve.I love brands and how they make you feel (and transact!)I love operations and the complexity and orchestra that is the global supply chain.I love to help - let me know how!
