Authority

I've spent nearly 30 years in technology and approaching 20 years specifically in cyber security, working with boards, investors, and leadership teams navigating high-stakes decisions in complex environments.

Currently at PA Consulting, and previously with EY-Parthenon, my experience spans Life Sciences and pharma, MedTech and medical device security, Advanced Manufacturing and OT environments, and Private Equity M&A due diligence. I've advised on cyber risk in multi-hundred-million-pound acquisitions, helped boards understand AI security governance, and worked to secure operational technology in environments where failure carries real consequences.

Based in Silverstone — the heart of UK motorsport and F1 — I bring a mindset shaped by high-performance environments where marginal gains matter, rapid iteration is standard, and evidence-based thinking is non-negotiable. My approach is direct: explain what matters, cut through what doesn't, and help leaders act decisively.

This is not consultancy theatre. It's advisory work for people making real decisions with real consequences.
