Closing a Chapter, Opening New Doors

After two decades of dedicated consultancy work, guiding businesses, and treasured relationships, I am closing this chapter with immense gratitude. The past 20 years have been a journey of growth, knowledge, kind connections and adventure.

As I transition from consultancy, I am excited to explore new professional opportunities where I can apply my experience, strategic insight, and passion for innovation. I am open to roles that align with my expertise, where I will function as part of a team.

If you know of opportunities that could be a great fit, I’d love to connect. Here’s to new beginnings

2024 has been a good year. Our clients provided most innovative product briefs that we managed to change into prototype product ranges, factory production, taste surprises. What an honour. Happy 2025 and may you experience truly great food experiences this year, whether it be fresh from a tree, out of a can or glass bottle.
What were some of the food highlights you would like to mention?

Currently in the Southwest of France, shopping for ideas and inspiration. How lovely is this wine box that doubles as a bird feeder, sold with a string to hang it with 🕊
