Partner & CEO

I bring over 20 years of professional experience working with corporate clients and individuals across multiple sectors, including extensive work with venture capitalist backed projects and private equity houses. 

My approach focuses on understanding how to improve our clients' businesses rather than just presenting financial data. I believe great client service comes from understanding the complete picture of a client's business - their challenges, opportunities, and what drives them - so we can develop solutions that genuinely work for them. 

I lead Ballards Group's strategic direction, ensuring we deliver business advisory services that make a real difference to our clients. I champion our "Deep Understanding, Delivered Swiftly" approach across all client engagements whilst fostering a culture where our team can thrive. One of my key achievements has been transforming Ballards into a multi-disciplinary advisory firm, expanding beyond traditional accounting into strategic advisory, digital transformation, corporate finance, recruitment, and brand strategy.

Our core values of being collaborative, entrepreneurial, adaptable, and inclusive aren't just words on a wall, they guide how we operate daily. We embrace innovative approaches, encourage calculated risks, and celebrate the diverse perspectives that drive our collective success. Fear of failure isn't in our vocabulary; it's simply a stepping stone to growth.

Away from the office, I'm passionate about spending quality time with my family, enjoy playing golf, and find great satisfaction in coaching youth rugby, experiences that reinforce my belief in the power of teamwork, development, and celebrating collective achievements.
