Since joining GCP in 2019, I have worked across several of the firm’s high-growth investments, including Bridewell, Flint Global, Plenitude, ETC, Coolr, Jones Knowles Ritchie, GTS Flexible Materials, and more recently leading our investment in Optima Partners. Through this work, I have supported businesses through important phases of development and strategic growth, with particular experience across creative, professional services and AI/ data led-sectors. I currently work closely with the teams and on the board of Jones Knowles Ritchie, GTS Flexible Materials and Optima Partners, an AI-led transformation consultancy. 

I moved from Australia to London in 2018, where I worked in the Private Equity Group at KPMG specialising in transaction services. Prior to moving I worked in the Transaction Services team of KPMG Australia in both the Sydney and Perth offices, focusing on mid-market private equity and corporate transactions. I am a qualified Chartered Accountant. 

I love anything to do with sports, both playing and watching them (particularly when Australia beats England in the cricket). My wife and I love to travel and have enjoyed exploring paths unknown across the UK and broader Europe.
