I am a seasoned IT professional with over 25 years of experience in IT distribution. I have worked with various IT organisations across Asia Pacific, ranging from start-ups to established enterprises. I have a strong background in purchasing, product management, sales, marketing and leadership. I have successfully led a major ERP project and a start-up business that grew from $0 to $135m in revenue. I value good people and transparent relationships, and I strive to deliver profitable and mutually beneficial outcomes for our customers, resellers and suppliers. As a leader at Dicker Data, I am always looking for new ways to inspire, educate and assist our resellers in maximizing their business potential.
