The Expert Narrative

Bridging Institutional Precision with Startup Agility

My career began in digital marketing for global banks in Australia before moving to Hong Kong in 2006. At Citi, I proved that digital channels could drive customer acquisition, and at HSBC, I expanded into the B2B world, managing regional marketing for global banking and markets.

As the former Country Manager for GoBear and Chief Growth Officer for Serai, I have spent the last decade disrupting traditional financial ecosystems. I now leverage this dual perspective to help founders take command of their P&L and build high-impact marketing foundations from the ground up.

I provide leadership and coaching to enhance skills, helping your team take command and deliver measurable results.
