With 26+ years of international expertise, I've honed my skills in innovation, startup scaling, and global marketing at Shell International and Korn/Ferry International.

As the Managing Director of !nnov8 Ltd, I've coached over 100 startup founders, guiding them in innovation, pivoting, product conceptualisation, strategy development, corporate collaboration, and international scaling. My recent venture, Makeke, born out of an InnovateUK grant, is a discovery-first, shop-local-first shoppertainment app.

The mission is clear: to empower local independent retailers of all sizes to not just survive but thrive in their online ventures.

Join us as we elevate local retailers and create a vibrant, community-driven shopping experience.
