Career Journey
Career Story
I excel in driving the strategic agenda and growth/GTM activities of dynamic businesses. I have 15 years experience at software platform and online businesses in Silicon Valley and Australia, and have worked on B2B and consumer offerings at large multinationals and tech scaleups. This work is underpinned by the capabilities and toolkit acquired as a management consultant at Bain & Company in the USA.
