I am a dynamic leader specialising in Digital Transformation, Innovation, Strategy, and Customer Experience. I have a passion for helping businesses to create winning value propositions through a blend of deliberate strategy, innovative business models, and emerging technology (incl.

I am continuously learning, growing, adapting and iterating. I am excited about the role that Digital Transformation will have in the future business landscape and endeavor to be at the forefront of tomorrow’s disruption. “Today, if you’re not disrupting yourself, someone else is; your fate is to be either the disruptor or the disrupted. There is no middle ground.” – Salim Ismail, Singularity University: Exponential Organizations
