Why I'm interested in board roles.

What I believe I can contribute to a board

About Me

“My role as a director is to challenge what is possible, while my accounting background ensures I consider what is financially responsible. I have a bias towards purpose driven and exporting companies, the latter given the size of the opportunity offshore and a strong belief that our products and services are world class. I bring strong analytical and problem solving skills to the table and enjoy making data and evidence-based decisions. While relatively new to governance, I’m well experienced in executive roles in founder and family led companies and I appreciate the importance of ensuring a positive journey for both the founder and the business. Governance capability - Challenging the status quo, developing future focused growth strategies, comparing multiple scenarios for decision making Industry / Sector Experience - FMCG & Apparel, start up / entrepreneurial businesses Functional Skills - Financial acumen; development of strategies for new product / channel / market opportunities, ability to assimilate large amounts of information and draw logical links and insights”
