๐Ÿงญ About Me

Profile Image.png

I've spent my career making organisations work better from leading 1,800-person change programmes to redesigning how frontline teams serve customers, and a lot of the harder, less visible work in between.

My background spans public sector, government-contracted services, and private sector operations. The thread through all of it: performance, workforce transformation, digital change, and decisions grounded in data.

I'm a Founding Friend of PTSD UK. Based in Galashiels, Scotland.
