About

I lead organisations and teams in dynamic and challenging environments – with a focus on value creation and growth. I have worked in diverse industries with multi-disciplinary teams. This has enabled me to develop an agile mindset – an ability to quickly grasp the dynamics, identify issues/value drivers and devise solutions/strategies. I am driven and energised by business problems. It is often through problem solving that we identify new opportunities. I have invested in and set up businesses in diverse and unrelated sectors and geographies and continue to seek new opportunities and challenges. I have a bachelor’s degree in economics from University of Sussex and am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales. During the span of my career, I have worked with KPMG, Deloitte, Ernst & Young and ABN-Amro Bank.
