About

Highly motivated geologist and business professional with 15+ years of global experience spanning exploration, prospect generation, development, business development, and managerial roles. I spent 13 years actively working in the oil & gas industry worldwide before pursuing an MBA, refining my strategic and entrepreneurial skill set. Looking to apply my expertise in new and meaningful ways, I explored opportunities beyond the energy sector, leading me to entrepreneurship. Now, I have launched a small business operating mobile saunas in Scotland, combining my business acumen with a passion for wellness and sustainability.
