I joined Ignition following my return to Australia from Asia as Asia Pacific CEO. During that time, I worked with a talented group of individuals to strengthen Ignition's opportunities and business model during a critical time for ignition. As part of this role, I helped build a strong digital advice brand and prospect pipeline in Australia and secured a strategic investor. After 2 years in the Asia Pacific CEO role I have transitioned to a non-executive advisory role. I provide strategic insight around the Asia Pacific wealth industry in a non-executive capacity to the Ignition board and executive.Bridging the advice gap to enable more individuals to receive affordable and accessible advice has been and is still personally important to me.
