About

A City analyst with over twenty years' experience, I have worked across corporate finance, investment banking, insurance, and risk consultancy.  I work with companies both large and small and across multiple sectors, and have also mentored a number of small business owners both at home and also abroad via the Cherie Blair Foundation for Women's Mentoring Women in Business Programme.  This gives me a unique breadth of knowledge, a particular understanding as to the type of information companies need, and how to best to evaluate, analyse, and present such data in order to unlock and deliver genuine strategic insight.
