“I have worked in the hospitality sector for over 30 years, predominantly in financial and operational procedures, having worked in a number of high profile financial roles and company board positions in both the UK and USA, in multi-site units and Head Office positions. 
Over the past 8 years I have managed acquisitions and new developments with independent hotels and brands including IHG, Accor, Hilton, Best Western, Radisson and Wyndham. Having constructed major investment appraisals and delivering large-scale hotel refurbishment programs to strict time scales, and on budget; ultimately achieving significant increases in asset value.
My experience led me to developing and rolling out new digital concepts to support acquisitions, disposals, bank funding, compliance, IT, revenue management and HR.
Specialising in building dynamic teams and processes, motivating staff to drive growth, increase efficiency, cost effectiveness and bottom-line profit.  

January 2021 I successfully joined Xero as a certified partner supporting companies in the hospitality sector to streamline processes across all departments; helping businesses understand financial data and improve returns to shareholders.  In April 2021 I recently acquired a country house hotel in East Anglia to apply my expertise in hospitality and thrive as an owner.

I have been a member of HOSPA since its interception in 1999, a member of the Institute of Directors, Institute of Hospitality and HPN London.
