About Me

Vision Statement

“Be the change you want to see in the world.”, Mahatma Gandhi


The quote above sums up my personal ethos and consequently my attitude to assisting enterprises. My vision for the future is to see a more equitable and accountable world where man and nature is put first, not the pursuit of maximising shareholder value at all costs.


Perhaps a little idealistic? Can I force this change myself? Of course I can’t, in fact my changes will be totally inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. However, this does not mean I am going to sit back and go with the flow. This is why I take pride in working with small business and third sector organisations where there is a discernible wider social and environmental benefit.


My Core Values

  • Treat people fairly
  • Treat the environment fairly
  • Provide high quality services

Mission Statement

My mission when working with organisations and people will be to ensure that I make a positive economic, social, and environmental impact on them, and their stakeholders.
