I guess you could say that my sense of humour is unconventional but I do believe that sometimes you need to take a step back, laugh a bit to see things from a different perspective. Especially when working on a major piece of work, riddled with challenges, risks and issues. So if you hear me crack a joke mid meeting, while we are all scratching our heads, looking for answers, please do not be surprised.

After 10 years in banking, with experience in IT, operations, project management, marketing, cards acquiring and issuing, retail and corporate banking, I decided to start my own consultancy business. I think that it is now time that I use my competencies and skills to help businesses that want to execute projects in a professional manner, using an accepted project management methodology. Having worked in a very competitive sector, where product time to market is paramount, I understand the importance of on time delivery of projects.
