About me
I work with boards, CEOs and CFOs where strategy, governance, finance and sustainability meet. My career spans strategy consulting at L.E.K., private equity at Hg Capital and management roles at GlaxoSmithKline, alongside nine Non-Executive Director and Board Advisory roles. From 2022 to 2024 I was Head of Sustainability at L.E.K. Consulting, where I built the firm’s global sustainability function.
I now run Rhizome Strategy, helping organisations make financially grounded sustainability decisions: what is material, what is proportionate and what is worth acting on first. I also coach CEOs, CFOs and board members who want to lead with confidence on sustainability.
This blog is where I write about sustainability strategy, governance and leadership, drawing on board-level experience and my earlier work mentoring entrepreneurs. My subject choices reflect genuine curiosity rather than a content calendar.
I am a pragmatist: I like practical decisions, solving problems and building rapport with people.
