I am a senior leader inexorably honing the craft of creating business, environmental & community “win-win-win” outcomes through sustainability and circularity. I combine the breadth, depth and market/industry knowledge of being a Gartner senior director analyst & C-level advisor, alongside the pragmatic business and operational skills from my experience as a senior commercial leader and program director in business enablement.

I have enabled leaders and global organizations across industries to accelerate translation of their sustainability & circular ambitions & goals into reality, while unlocking business opportunity and resilience across their business and supply chains. I believe in building authentic relationships, and empowering & engaging team members and stakeholders around a shared vision to drive innovative & transformative outcomes.
