About Me

“A highly accomplished professional director, corporate affairs advisor, and crown-appointed statutory board member with over 25 years of definitive leadership spanning New Zealand’s advanced bioeconomy, commercial manufacturing, primary production, and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG). Proven track record in executing macro-level corporate strategy, safeguarding company performance, and driving commercial execution within highly complex compliance and regulatory environments. An expert in technical due diligence (DD) for private equity allocations, asset risk insulation, and dismantling cross-border structural bottlenecks to protect multi-million-dollar supply chains and corporate valuations. Designed, led and executed strategic framework that broke a multi-decade trade deadlock, enabling New Zealand's landmark $500M annual export growth opportunity.”
