One that has been filled with more changes and challenges than one could have imagined – but what an incredible ride it has been, with some truly unforgettable moments. I am incredibly proud to have been a pivotal figure within Rubies for the last 16 years.

“I am seeking a new challenge and to help drive profitable business. If you are looking to open new revenue streams or increase market distribution across the UK/EMEA and feel my experience and passion could add value to your business, I would welcome the opportunity to explore how I can help you achieve your goals.”
