My Professional Profile
Welcome
Welcome to my professional profile site. Please click on the relevant tab or button on the site for my full bio (in real estate & finance).
In the ‘credentials’ section below you will find a list of my current certifications and skills (broadly in the fields of accounting, investments, marketing, financial planning and data). My bio explains much more about the ‘experience’ or ‘completed projects’ boxes. It also outlines some (but not all!) of the ‘fun’ stuff (martial arts, sport, military etc.)
Pursuing Excellence
Constant Change
- Accounting & Finance
- Data & Technology
- Marketing & Sales
- Investments & Wealth
I follow a personal philosophy of ‘constant development/improvement’ based on the Japanese concept of ‘kaizen’ which means, literally, ‘good change.’ In my view, the only constant is change in an infinitely variable universe. I encompass this idea with my work ethic, knowledge-base along with an interest in the application of modern and emerging technologies and methodologies.
Kaizen 'Good Change'
Outcomes Matter
I follow the premise that we must work towards defined outcomes
Simplicity is Beautiful
A sculpter removes excess to create a work of art. Simplification, reductionism & efficiency are often elegant (and profitable).
Frictionless Teamwork
In my view a high-level team should work without friction. High performance at that level takes selection & training.
Data Is Capital
In a connected world, curating and analyzing data is a primary way to obtain competitive advantage.

FAQs
More Questions on FAQ Page
01. How can I contact you?
You can use the various ways on this site (contact form, email etc.)
02. Why did you set up this site?
This is designed to be a concise summary of my profile. I have found that I have been in situations where people have only seen ‘one aspect’ of my profile (e.g. as a wealth manager or marketer). Sometimes I felt I needed to ‘market myself’ a little better. This way, a quick glance can provide a reader with a lot of relevant information. Its also a simple way to contact me. Also, I think that there is just too much ‘noise’ on social media sites like Linkedin.
What is your profession?
I firmly believe I have just one profession as I feel the 6 fields I am educated/experienced in are related, complementary and synergistic. For example, real estate often relies on finance and capital. A financial planner needs to be a good marketer and modern management accounting is related to data analytics and coding. The military and sport also have their lessons to apply to organisations and individuals.
What are your politics?
None. I don’t do politics.
