Director. Capital. Infrastructure.

Twenty-five years building, operating and directing ventures across technology infrastructure, energy, construction and digital assets. Full P&L, cross-border, Melbourne.

Three current appointments, one through-line: capital and infrastructure that earn trust.

Everything I run today is either deploying capital or hardening the systems that move it. This is the live record, not a highlight reel.
