About Me
I am a “Connector”—a strategic leader who bridges the gap between C-suite vision and operational delivery. With over 15 years of experience across corporate, education, and community sectors, I thrive in complex environments that require both high-level governance and hands-on operational authority.
My dual background as a PRINCE2-certified Project Manager and a Strategic People Leader allows me to treat organisational culture as a project—structured, measurable, and aligned with technology.
My Approach:
- Strategic Connector: Translating complex stakeholder requirements into actionable, technology-enabled people strategies.
- Stabilise-to-Scale: Expert at building the HRIS, legal, and operational frameworks that allow founder-led startups to scale safely.
- Dual Authority: Combining PRINCE2 rigour with Board-level governance and people-centric leadership.
- Digital Literacy: Integrating AI and automation into People Operations to enhance efficiency and process transparency.
Key Transformation Successes:
- Human Driven AI (HDAI): Successfully delivered a foundational mandate as Board Member and Head of People & Ops, navigating the transition from founder-led startup to an established, scalable operation.
- Digital Transformation (Education): Led institutional rebranding and digital overhauls, enhancing community engagement and market positioning through integrated technology strategies.
- SME Mentoring: PRINCE2-led business coaching for the “Help To Grow” programme, supporting SMEs in building sustainable operational capability.
