about me

I am an entrepreneur, business owner, investor, and strategic advisor, managing a diverse portfolio of technology investments and wholly owned companies. I provide capital, strategic insight, and hands-on operational support to innovative technology companies across the UK, Europe, and the US. My focus is on partnering with driven entrepreneurs and dynamic management teams, helping them scale their businesses and unlock new growth opportunities.

Venture Capital & Private Equity

As an investor, I actively participate in both minority and majority investments across all stages of company growth – from seed to buyout. I also specialize in distressed buyouts and turnaround investments, focusing on businesses facing operational and financial challenges. By leveraging my experience and strategic direction, I help these companies recover, stabilise, and achieve long-term success.

BACKGROUND & education

I began my career in investment banking, where I specialised in mergers and acquisitions, advising on transactions totaling over $1 billion. I have worked with governments, public and private companies, funds, and financial institutions, guiding them through complex deals and delivering value.

I hold a degree in Economics with a minor in Political Science from Auburn University and a Master’s degree in Accounting, Organisations, and Institutions from the London School of Economics.
