NB: I use LinkedIn to maintain my existing business contacts. Please therefore only add me to your network if we know each other- at the very least that we have had a conversation.
If you don't know me but would like to reach out, you are welcome to send me a message through LinkedIn or drop me an email (not difficult to find).

My current baby is Shutl, the internet start-up that is changing how we shop online by enabling shoppers to get what they want, when they want it.
Shutl lets consumers shop at their favorite online stores and receive delivery either within minutes of purchase or at a time of their choice.
Shutl operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and can be offered by retailers for a similar price to standard delivery… sometimes even for free!
Shutl currently operates across 85% UK with retail partners including: Argos, Maplin, The Entertaine, Oasis, Karen Millen, Warehouse, Coast, & Laithwaites Wine. In 2013 we launched in SF, NYC, Chicago & Dallas and were acquired by eBay.
