About

Operator who governs.
Director who executes.

"The discipline that wins at the Paralympics is the same discipline that wins in a boardroom — clarity of purpose, ruthless prioritisation, and the willingness to be accountable."

I'm a technology executive and board director with 25+ years across SaaS, cybersecurity, AI, and enterprise software. I've led turnarounds, SaaS transformations, and international growth across ASX-listed and global businesses. I bring an operator's instinct and a director's discipline.

I'm building a focused non-executive portfolio across ASX-listed and growth-stage technology, SaaS, and cybersecurity businesses, drawing on 25+ years as an operator across turnarounds, transformations, and international scale.

Board & NED

Commercial governance for technology boards.

Available for NED, advisory board, and board committee roles. I bring the perspective of someone who has run the business — understanding metrics, risk, and what management needs from a board that challenges and supports in equal measure.

Growth & Capital Strategy

Investor narrative, capital planning, M&A readiness, and post-deal integration. Having run fundraising and exits, I understand what boards need to hear and challenge.

M&A Capital Investor Relations

Cybersecurity & Resilience

Board-level cyber oversight, incident readiness, third-party risk, and governance frameworks. Committee experience available including IT & Cyber governance roles.

IT & Cyber Committee Risk Governance

SaaS Scale & International Expansion

ARR/NRR discipline, pricing strategy, customer success metrics, and international market entry. Deep experience across APAC, North America, and European expansions.
