I love learning, and I love sharing what I've learnt. Since the age of 22, I've started a range of business and ALMOST messed each of the them up. But somehow, through perseverance and a little fortune, I find myself at the helm of a VC backed health tech business. In the past I've been an Award Winning Creative Director, most notably at SXSWi. In my future I hope to build a business that genuinely makes the world a better place. In the mean-time, I'd be honoured to share my learnings with your audience. I'm most comfortable talking about Lean Startup, Digital Marketing, Company Strategy and being a Founder. But I've also talked about Design, UX, Content Marketing and Leadership. I'm based in Cardiff, but I don't care wether it's Barnsley or Brussels. If there's a group of engaging people, hand my a microphone and I'll start an interesting debate!
