I am a 28 year old living in Bristol with my partner and children. In three years I have created a highly successful company with no initial investment and never spending a penny on sales and marketing whilst suffering from PTSD. With a focus on utilising a global workforce, breaking conventional ideas of business and an unhealthy obsession with search engine optimisation I believe I am in a position to help assist more entrepreneurs and businesses to rapidly expand and compete online. Having consulted multi-million pound companies into unifying departments to work better together online I now wish to offer my time for free speaking at events and educating the next generation. Previous talks at the Business Show in Olympia and ExCeL in London have been sold out and required me to repeat them four times in a day. I am a passionate and a confident speaker who likes to interact with a crowd.
