I’m a kiwi. That means I come from New Zealand. Have you heard of it? It’s a beautiful country filled with friendly people. You can get there from Spain by digging a hole straight through the centre of the earth. I prefer to fly though. It’s much faster and your fingers don’t get dirty.
I’ve lived and worked in eight countries over the last thirty years. Half of those countries were in the Far East, the other half in the west. Today my home is Mallorca in the beautiful Balearic Islands, Spain.
Here is the journey so far …
Not so long ago, I co-founded a business that turns plastic waste into homes, schools and clinics. It’s won numerous awards across entrepreneurship, social innovation, and design - including global entrepreneur of the year at Pitch@Palace, selected from over 25,000 businesses worldwide.
Today, after years spent successfully raising venture capital for the purposes of launching and building companies - I founded Decksadu, a specialist firm that helps founders, operators, and dealmakers secure funding from investors and lenders.
To date, clients I've worked with have raised over $1.2 billion.
On a personal level, I have a deep interest in businesses whose products or services improve lives or improve our world. There’s a lot to be said for people and companies that do well by doing good.
