About
I like building things that work.
Most of my career has been with early stage companies, creating structure, building operating systems, and helping teams get the ball across the line against the odds.
My approach is to keep things simple: cut through, work hard and deliver. I attribute this to my pre-startup experience with Greenpeace, where I learned the value of direct action and how to stay steady under pressure, and to my time in renewables, where I learned how to run complex projects on the ground.
I went on to take founding and operating roles at a series of startups. I’ve built teams, shaped business models, run operations and brought new products to market. I now use this experience to offer fractional execution support to founders and early stage ventures.
Parallel to my work with startups I run an artistic practice and an applied research track. I'm studying a part time MFA at Goldsmiths, working on themes of time, structure and value. The research looks at how systems behave and how decisions compound. Together they give me another lens for distilling early stage environments.
Each track is part of the same wider system with startup execution, creative practice, and research all strengthening one another. It works well.
