I started mountain biking in its early days, competing as a junior in the 1989 & 1990 national series (and even starring on three MBUK covers). I then spent a lot of time off the bike, building a career in digital and going on to co-found and run We Are Social, a new kind of agency that combined an innate understanding of social media with digital, PR and marketing skills. As CEO and then Chairman, We Are Social grew to over 900 people across 15 global offices. In 2020 I stepped back to focus on advising and investing, and to spend more time with my family and my mountain bike (I love riding the gnarliest off-piste trails I can find in the Forest of Dean and the South Wales valleys).I’m now working on getting the UK MTB Trail Alliance off the ground, a new association of trail associations, informal trail groups and bike parks, as I believe that it’s essential that recreational mountain bikers should have a voice at a national level. I’m also a qualified British Cycling Mountain Bike Leader and I have recently taken and passed the ATB Trail Inspection & ATB Trail Maintenance Coordinator courses and assessments. I've been an early stage investor in many internet businesses, including Gophr, Crowdcube, Seedrs, Uphold, Elliptic, Assetz Capital, Landbay and Lovespace. And believe it or not, I was named as one of London’s most influential people by the Evening Standard, was named one of the most influential people in digital and crowned Social Media Individual of the Year by The Drum and was a winner of the EY Entrepreneur of the Year awards.
