About
I’ve always been interested in entrepreneurship and new technologies – from tinkering with side projects to, very fortunately, backing brilliant people building new ideas today.
After completing an Economics degree at the University of Manchester, I joined a Fintech startup and quickly became hooked on all things early‑stage tech and venture.
This interest led me to Innovate Finance, the UK’s Fintech Industry Body, where I managed and grew a founder network of 250 members. I then joined Schroders Investment Management, where I led startup and VC engagement and worked on strategic partnerships with Fintech and AI companies.
I’m a firm believer that strong networks and partnerships can quickly unlock real value. This led me to join Mercia in 2026, where I focus on building a connected portfolio community and developing platform initiatives that provide practical, meaningful support as companies scale.
Outside of Mercia, I’m an avid backpacker, aspiring runner and Liverpool fan.
