I’ve been privileged to help scale a number of established and emerging technology companies at points of tremendous growth. My aim is to learn all things talent and I take pride in hiring the best engineers who want to change the world.
I love travelling and discovering different cultures across the globe. I have been lucky to experience a number of diverse cultures having lived in England, France, America and Indonesia whilst attending international schools throughout. I speak English, French and Spanish as a result and I've been part of the Improbable consortium who introduced cheese, cured meats and wine on Friday afternoons :)
I discovered my love for technology late on but have been addicted ever since. When time permits, I build on this interest by learning to code and studying various courses around Computer Science. I’m also lucky enough to be surrounded by some of the best computer scientists, who are selfless in the distribution of their knowledge!
I typically enjoy most sports and my goal is to hire someone that can beat me at table tennis so if you’re up for it >> http://improbable.io/life-at-improbable/
