About

Chief Financial Officer at Cornish Lithium, a pioneering lithium development company building a secure, sustainable lithium supply to fuel the world’s transition to renewable energy. We have secured over £135 million from government, retail investors and leading institutional investors, significantly accelerating Cornish Lithium’s development and setting it up to start producing lithium products from both our hard rock and geothermal opportunities before the end of this decade. This will support the scaling up of battery production for electric vehicles and battery energy storage solutions and help the world achieve Net Zero targets. With over 25 years of experience guiding TSX and AIM-listed mining companies from project definition through to development and construction, I have been instrumental in project development across the world.
