Finance Director
I am a seasoned entrepreneur and finance leader with a passion for building thriving communities, both in the fitness world and the emerging Web3 ecosystem. As the Founder and Finance Director of Dual Strength and Fitness in Horsham, I established a successful gym, growing membership by 30% through strategic vision, financial oversight, and community engagement. Previously, I managed The Gym Group in Guildford (2009–2015), where I led a team of 10, designed personalized training programs for over 50 clients, and increased membership by 20% through innovative marketing and retention strategies.
With a keen interest in blockchain technology, I’m actively exploring opportunities in DeFi and crypto, leveraging my financial acumen and operational expertise. I enjoy National Trust walks with my dog, which inspire my approach to fostering inclusive, resilient communities—skills I bring to Web3 projects. My technical interests include blockchain fundamentals, smart contract development with Solidity, and community-driven initiatives on Discord. I thrive on solving complex challenges, adapting to fast-paced environments, and connecting with diverse teams globally. Let’s build the decentralized future together!
