Summary

My career began in financial services where I qualified as a chartered accountant. In 2018 I pivoted into SaaS with Datadog where I have honed my skills as a sales professional. This mixture of experience has given me the ability to convey value to every area of an organisation. I drive high standards across each team I work in, which Is why I have been promoted consistently during my career. My life philosophy is adopt a growth mindset in everything I do.
