About

Experience across global businesses and entrepreneurial ventures.

I do not stop at recommendations. I help translate strategy into priorities, operating plans, commercial actions and measurable outcomes.

I have worked across global consumer businesses and entrepreneurial ventures, building experience in commercial strategy, business leadership, market expansion and brand development.

I connect strategy to the commercial levers that determine performance: revenue, margins, pricing, portfolio, distribution, channel mix and execution.

Global corporate leadership combined with entrepreneurial experience gives me both a corporate and a founder’s perspective.
