About

MD of Vocala Smart Properties, providing a tech enabled care solution through Alexa. We are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with Alexa, smart home devices and voice technology by creating a platform that provides experiences that are both innovative and engaging and that can make our customers’ lives easier. ‍ With 20 years’ experience in live events and experiential marketing. My career has taken me all over the world working with clients to help them tell their story and achieve their success. I moved into the voice sector as I am fascinated by the opportunities that this technology can create. Outside of work I'm mostly seen running around after my two children, although I do try and squeeze in the odd game of golf and watch some live sport if I get the chance.
