I am a business-driven Chief Information Officer, Chief Technology Officer, Chief Digital Officer, with global and CEO start-up experience. My passion is business, technology and digital transformation that drives business value.

I have led a significant number of Technology Transformations, the scope of which cover every aspect of Technology – people (digital capability uplift), process (COVID incident management, Agile, VPDSF cybersecurity compliance) and technology (Cloud, managed services replacement, business process automation). I delivered a 100% increase in project throughput at a reduced cost (<10%), This was achieved with ZERO disruption to the business. Finally, I led the establishment of the ASX-listed InPayTech (formerly known as Payment Adviser).

I am recognised by key stakeholders for my proven ability to establish a transformational Technology vision of the future, that enables the business to achieve its full potential, to communicate that vision and to influence people to achieve it by building collaborative relationships, effective communication and persuasion.
