Practical Management Consulting and Project Support.
I help managers tackle difficult challenges with confidence. From targeted project support to comprehensive strategic reviews, data analysis, and reporting, I provide the hands-on guidance you need to move forward. Think of me as your second set of hands—ready to help drive your success, from planning to practical action.
About Me
With over 20 years of experience across defence, private industry, and government sectors, I specialise in helping managers tackle complex challenges with confidence. From strategic planning to project and asset management, I’ve led diverse teams and projects, always with a focus on practical, real-world results. My background includes roles in project management, logistics, data analysis, and management consulting, where I’ve supported major initiatives like the Smart Beaches Project and the Air Force General Purpose Uniform development.
I know how important a clear, logical approach is to business success, but I also know that managers don’t always have the time to dive into complex situations themselves. That’s where I come in. My approach is hands-on, meeting you where you are, with the data you have. Whether it’s helping you understand messy data, strategising around operational goals, or drafting clear plans and reports that make sense to stakeholders, I offer end-to-end support that brings clarity and direction to your projects.
With a Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) and a Graduate Certificate in Management, plus certifications in asset management and training, I bring a well-rounded, adaptable approach. I aim to be a second set of hands—providing insights, clarity, and action-focused recommendations that help you deliver on your objectives without the fuss. Let’s work together to make the most of your data, your projects, and your team’s potential.

Data Analysis
I understand the day-to-day challenges managers face when they want to leverage data but lack the time or resources to do it effectively. I don’t push complex data overhauls; instead, I meet you where you are, working with the data you have and presenting it in a way that has meaning and value for you.
See some examples of how I handle data here.
