Since I was young adult, I’ve loved the concept of turning ideas into reality. Now, as a CEO, Entrepreneur and Non-Executive Director with 20 years of experience in finance, investment, equity capital markets and M&A, I harness progressive, entrepreneurial experience spanning diverse sectors and organisational types to provide the strategic leadership that takes a great idea into a profitable and sustainable commercial reality.My first love has always been, and continues to be, M&A. Evaluating both qualitative and quantitative factors, I synergise an understanding of numbers, people and concepts to not only make the right strategic investment decisions but ensure execution delivers targeted results. Maximising not only financial return but the potential of human capital, I bring a strong focus on people to overcome the challenges of change inherent in growth, creating, integrating and growing sustainable, lean and engaged businesses through M&A activities. First demonstrated as CFO and later non-Executive Director of DKN, I have led a number of major programs of recapitalisation and restructuring that have propelled businesses back to health and through to completion of successful acquisitions. Since 2007, I have provided visionary leadership to Paragon Care Ltd as MD and CEO and Careteq Limited as Executive Chairman, reinvigorating, stabilising and transitioning the company before leading a program of strategic M&A. Paragon is now a leading platform provider to the health and aged care markets that continues to grow, year on year and Careteq is an emerging health-tech company listed on the ASX working using assistive living technologies to increase the levels of care within our aged community. A Non-Executive Director with over 20 years’ Board experience for a diverse range of organisations including not-for-profits, I welcome contact through LinkedIn. Please feel free to get in touch.
