Most boards and CEOs I meet aren't short on data. They're drowning in it.

What they need is someone who can cut through the noise, spot the patterns that matter, and turn financial complexity into decisions they can act on with confidence.

That's where I come in.

I'm a Chief Financial Officer with nearly two decades across healthcare, aged care, NDIS, FMCG, mining, and global corporates. I've managed budgets north of $500M, led financial transformations that unlocked over $50M in savings, and navigated mergers, acquisitions, regulatory reform, and turnarounds where the margin for error was zero.

But here's what sets my work apart: I don't just report the numbers. I translate them into strategy, governance, and growth that boards can trust and execute.

Beyond the CFO role, I share what works.

I've written five books, including Beyond the Numbers, NDIS Financial Management, Survive and Thrive: Cash Flow Strategies that Actually Work, The AI Playbook for the Practical CFO, and Aged Care Reform 2025. These aren't academic exercises. They're executive playbooks born from real situations where getting it right meant survival.

My latest project takes this further. I've just launched Practical Cash Flow Mastery on Udemy, a course designed for leaders who need to understand cash flow without getting lost in spreadsheets. It's the frameworks I use with clients, distilled into practical steps you can implement immediately.

Through CFOInsights.au and speaking engagements, I spark conversations on resilience, governance, and the emerging challenges (regulatory shifts, AI adoption, sector disruption) that keep finance leaders awake at night.

At the board level, I serve as Non-Executive Director and advisor, delivering financial governance, risk oversight, and strategic execution that turns ambition into achievable outcomes.

What drives my approach:

- Strategic partnership: I go beyond stewardship to unlock opportunity and co-create growth alongside leadership teams.

- Clarity in complexity: I deliver actionable insights, even when uncertainty is high, and stakes are higher.

- Governance with purpose: I fuse deep sector expertise with strategic leadership to create lasting impact.

My focus now: partnering with boards and leadership teams navigating transformation, where governance, growth, and purpose converge to create real value.

Let's connect if your organisation needs financial leadership that drives meaningful outcomes.
