Angel Investor · Peak

Manchester

I help founders and executive teams build and execute go-to-market strategies, run immersive strategy, process, systems and data workshops, and design compelling AI solutions and experiences. As Vice President of Global Strategy, Business Development & Ecosystem at Peak, I have over 10 years’ experience helping leaders use automation, advanced technology and AI/ML optimisations to create profit and advantage. I have run thousands of workshops, architected hundreds of AI solutions and co-created dozens of data strategies across supply chain, merchandising, pricing and marketing.

I lead a team across EMEA, US and India and am responsible for creating and executing global strategic initiatives, developing new GTM propositions and building an ecosystem that drives customer value and scale. I regularly engage in c-suite discussions to help organisations deploy AI across the value chain and maximise commercial outcomes, and I bring that practitioner experience to mentoring and partnering with early-stage teams seeking to turn AI and data into tangible business results.
