Summary
I have worked at the intersection of technology, business and organisation — as consultant, entrepreneur and interim executive. I help CEOs, owners and boards of industrial and technology companies translate complexity into decisions people trust: building shared operating models, connecting people across functions and countries, and driving strategic programs from direction to delivery. I bridge start-ups, SMEs and corporates — pairing an engineer's logic with an executive's judgement.
