About

As an architect by training and a CEO by practice, I’ve learned that no matter how visionary the design, if the foundation isn't calculated for the load, the walls will eventually crack. Leveraging my experience as CEO of a public REIT and an INSEAD-certified director (IDP-c), I help companies and family offices master complexity by redesigning their Operational Foundation. I serve as an interim executive or board sparring partner to build systems that run so well, I eventually make myself redundant. Available for new mandates starting September 2026. If your foundation isn't calculated for your ambitions, let's talk.
