About

I am a management consultant with 23 years of experience working with startup companies. This has included helping founders refine and refocus their strategy for business growth; redefine their role in their business; and pitch for investment.
I have worked with over 400 entrepreneurs in over 18 countries, and trained over 40 business coaches/business incubator managers. This has been as a manager of a Business Incubator based in South Africa’s first Science Park; and a consultant working on projects mainly in East and Southern Africa, the Caribbean and Asia.
My interest is in assisting founders of startups realize their potential and achieve their goals.

Mentorship motivation

  • I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up

I am recently retired and hence have more time to assist individuals by: being a sounding board, sharing experiences, and holding them accountable for their success.
