I'm an entrepreneur, SaaS founder, and growth strategist with a passion for building high-performance businesses that scale. As the co-founder of Ascendea, a next-generation AI-powered CRM and voice automation platform for SMEs, I'm on a mission to transform how small and mid-sized businesses operate, communicate, and grow.
With over a decade of experience in founding, leading, and advising high-growth companies, I combine strategic thinking with practical, hands-on execution. My entrepreneurial journey began in e-commerce, launching several successful brands — including Simply Bike Stuff, which hit £1M in turnover within its first year. That early success led me to explore how technology, marketing automation, and now AI can create massive leverage for small businesses.
I also founded Simply Growth Engine, a digital consultancy and marketing automation platform designed to help SMEs streamline operations, attract more customers, and increase profitability through smart systems and AI-powered tools.
What drives me is turning complexity into clarity. I love working with founders, leadership teams, and investors to unlock scalable growth through sharper systems, better strategy, and stronger storytelling. Along the way, my work has been featured in Citywire, Clearpay’s Retailer Success Series, and across the UK business press — covering topics like entrepreneurship, innovation, and digital transformation.
Today, my focus is on equipping SMEs with the kinds of tools and capabilities once only available to large enterprises — from AI voice agents to predictive advertising and smart automation — giving them the power to reclaim time, reduce overheads, and grow with confidence in an increasingly competitive world.
