I am a seasoned financial services professional with more than 15 years of experience across banking, finance, microfinance, and financial advisory services throughout South Africa and the broader African continent. My career has included senior leadership roles in retail banking, regional management, microfinance operations, and advisory services.
My leadership style is hands-on, strategic, and people-focused. I am passionate about building sustainable businesses, developing strong teams, and helping clients make informed financial decisions that support their long-term goals.
I focus on delivering holistic financial planning solutions to both private and business clients, ensuring that advice is practical, transparent, and aligned with each client’s unique circumstances.
Outside of my professional work, I have a strong interest in sport and endurance fitness, including cycling and triathlon training, and I am a passionate and unapologetic Blue Bulls rugby supporter. I also enjoy personal development and leadership growth, travelling and experiencing different cultures, and mentoring and developing people within professional environments.
