About me

With over two decades of entrepreneurial experience in digital and SaaS, my journey has been about nurturing innovative startups and guiding them towards market leadership. Founding Flinders, a premier design furniture store, and leading Jungle Minds, a distinguished internet consultancy, are testaments to my commitment to digital excellence and e-commerce innovation.

My expertise extends to optimizing digital strategies, growth hacking in e-commerce, developing SaaS business models, and crafting online marketing strategies. I am also deeply invested in integrating circular economy principles into business practices and providing venture capital to promising ventures. Authoring 'The Start-up Scorecard' has allowed me to share my insights with a broader audience of entrepreneurs and investors.
