A bit about me
Throughout my career, I have often found myself in the space between different worlds. Between strategy and execution, between corporate organisations and creative teams, and between people who have an idea and the specialists needed to make it happen.
That connecting role comes naturally to me. I like bringing together people with different expertise, personalities and perspectives, creating clarity around what needs to happen and helping everyone move towards the same result.
I have worked on the client side, within agencies and as an entrepreneur building new platforms and businesses.
That experience helps me connect strategy with execution. I understand the different interests involved, bring the right people together and keep projects moving until ideas become tangible results.
