About

I’ve spent more than a decade across market research, marketing, operations and business development; work that pulled me towards building businesses, systems, teams rather than staying in one functional lane. Since 2016 I’ve run Adminence, delivering operations and growth for businesses across the US and UK. My current focus is UpskAill, where we’re building a professional training company on a simple idea: as technology changes how work gets done, people need the judgment, practical capability and confidence to apply what they know. I write here as part of that work.
