My Story
From an early age, I didn’t stumble into business — I grew up inside it. I’ve been directly involved in building, operating, and owning businesses, learning firsthand how decisions made at the ground level ripple through to performance, profitability, and long-term viability. I’ve worked where theory meets reality, taking responsibility for outcomes rather than just advising from the sidelines. These experiences weren’t just roles; they were formative chapters that shaped how I understand risk, growth, and what really makes a business work.
But my work doesn’t stop at operations.
Over the years, I’ve expanded my expertise into the financial and strategic engine rooms of businesses across multiple industries, working with organisations such as Remy, Ballande, and General Electric, among others. From building practical strategies for SMEs and startups, to forensic financial analysis, franchising support, due diligence, and operational improvement, my focus has always been the same: clear thinking, grounded numbers, and decisions that stand up in the real world. I’ve supported early-stage ventures getting established, growing businesses finding structure and control, and mature organisations developing business plans, feasibility studies, and financial models for their next phase or an orderly exit.
If you’re looking for templated advice or generic commentary, I’m not the right fit. But if you want a virtual CFO who understands how businesses actually operate, speaks plainly about numbers and strategy, and cuts through noise to show you where the real risks and opportunities sit, then we should talk.

Transform Your Business with My Expertise as Your Virtual CFO, Accountant, and Business Consultant
Are you feeling weighed down by the complexity of your business finances, reporting, or internal processes? Do you want clearer visibility, better decision-making, and stronger financial control without drowning in spreadsheets or jargon? That’s where I come in.
With more than 30 years of hands-on experience across owner-managed businesses, growth-stage companies, and complex operating environments, I work alongside business owners and managers to bring clarity, structure, and discipline to their financial decision-making. I’ve been involved at every stage of a business lifecycle—from early setup and stabilisation, through growth and restructuring, to long-term planning and exit preparation. That breadth of experience means I understand how financial decisions actually play out in the real world, not just on paper.
My work goes well beyond traditional accounting. I help businesses make sense of their numbers and use them as practical tools for running the business day to day. This includes financial analysis, due diligence support, forensic reviews, feasibility assessments, and business structuring. I also work closely with owners on issues like risk reduction, cost control, performance improvement, and planning for growth or transition, always tailored to the specific realities of the business.
The focus is simple: fewer surprises, clearer decisions, and stronger control. With the right financial insight and guidance, you don’t just manage the business—you run it with confidence and intent.
