About me

I lead corporate communications for GoCardless, the bank payment company. My team helps drive awareness of the company's brand and reputation in the fast growing payments and open banking space. I'm a veteran of B2B Tech marketing having lived (and worked!!) through the dotcom boom, 2008 financial crisis and everything in between. I've held senior roles at Finastra, Sophis, Financial Objects, CommerceOne and Tibco Software as well as working agency-side on accounts including Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard.
My experience extends across Marketing Communications from PR, Internal Comms, Events and Brand as well as corporate communications including M&A activity. I spearheaded the rebrand of Misys & D+H to Finastra - launching the new brand and name in less than 8 weeks (please don't ask me to do that again!!) and led the positioning and brand refresh for GoCardless.

I hold a dual degree in European Business Administration from Middlesex University and the Ecole Supérieure de Commerce, Reims. I began her career in the British Embassy, Paris, speak French and am a qualified reflexologist. My passions are my family & friends, travel, cooking & baking and like nothing better than to relax with a good book.
