I am Head of Corporate Engagement (North America) building long term sustainable relationships with North American corporates with a significant base in London, aligning with our mission of creating economic growth that is resilient, sustainable and inclusive.
I have spent almost 14 years with London & Partners where I have developed a strong reputation in supporting companies in their globalisation including Twitter, Airbnb and Tesla. I completed a secondment at Tech City UK (now Tech Nation) the team set up by the UK Government. I have an extensive network of connections within the tech community in London, the USA and globally and was also based in New York for two years for London & Partners.
I have set up the Age Diversity group at London & Partners focussed on the importance of a multi-generational workforce.
