So, who am I?
I’ve led marketing at global giants like Uber and Coca-Cola, as well as category-defining consumer brands like Vinted (Europe’s largest fashion resale platform) and Innocent Drinks (a leading UK-based smoothie brand). I’m also a leadership and performance coach, an adventurer, and — apparently — a keynote speaker people actually enjoy listening to.
I’ve cycled 41,000km around the world (unsupported), hiked across three continents, and completed the first-ever triathlon of an entire country — cycling the length, kayaking the width, and climbing the height, all in one go.
I’m proud to be an ambassador for a UK mental health charity that works to prevent suicide and support those in crisis. I spend a lot of time talking about resilience — the messy, real kind — with teams and leaders across the world. My talks blend big-brand lessons, big-adventure stories, and a healthy dose of humour. If you’re into practical takeaways and honest storytelling, we’ll probably get along.
