My professional pedigree was forged within the leadership tiers of the world’s most influential firms, including Salesforce, Google, SAP, Accenture and BCG. At the C-Suite level, my focus is on Commercial Value Creation. I specialise in bridging the gap between large-scale digital transformation and board-level P&L objectives. Holding an MBA and specialised AI credentials from Oxford and Cambridge, I'm a believer that real innovation isn't a technical shift - it’s a mindset. It's about building a business that is agile enough to thrive in change and strong enough to lead the way. Executive Mandates: Global Sales Leadership & P&L Ownership: Expert in engineering market-entry strategies and scalable GTM frameworks. I have a proven record of leading matrixed organizations of cross functional 120+ members to consistently outperform global performance benchmarks. AI-Led Revenue Growth: I focus on institutionalising AI across the sales lifecycle to drive market responsiveness and measurable ROI. I am passionate about making AI a practical commercial asset that empowers teams to operate at a higher strategic velocity. Sovereign & Enterprise Advisory: A trusted partner to Sovereign entities and CEO offices, I have led national-scale digital agendas and served as a global keynote voice for the both Salesforce and Google. Inclusive Culture & Empowering Others: I champion a culture of inclusivity and excellence with a personal mission to elevate women into leadership. I believe that a diverse, high-performance culture is the heart of commercial success, and I make it a priority to "lift others as I climb." Beyond the boardroom, when the laptop is closed, I am a very reluctant gym-goer and a deeply passionate artist. I truly believe that art allows you to breathe a different kind of happiness. Painting is where I recharge my creative energy; it’s a space where I practice looking at the world through a different lens.
