ABOUT

About me…

Dynamic executive and seasoned software engineer with over 15 years of leadership experience and 12 years at the software engineering forefront. I’ve had the privilege of growing a business from its infancy to VC-backed maturity with a £4 million valuation. I’m an experienced fundraiser with over £2.5 million raised in investments through multiple rounds across different companies.

I was selected for the eminent 10,000 Small Businesses programme by Goldman Sachs, graduating in 2020 at Oxford University. I recently sharpened my executive leadership skills further at Saïd Business School, completing the Oxford Executive Leadership Programme. I have an established history of building and managing high-performing teams, having expanded GWD’s headcount from 4 to 20 and developing multiple B2B products.

I pride myself on bridging the gap between technical nuances and business goals. Technology is best when used to solve real problems, and establishing good product market fit is a process that starts before a product is built!

My penchant for innovation began early, securing a £250k private investment for a software startup at just 16 years old.

Beyond the corporate realm, I’m a Leadership Development Pathway participant at Toastmasters, a fervent advocate for environmental causes in my community, and have even contributed to the core PHP codebase. In my leisure, I find joy in woodworking, home automation, and renovations.
