I was born on a military base in Germany to British Army medic parents and spent my childhood between North Africa and Saudi Arabia before returning to the UK as a teenager. As a teenager and young adult I lived in inner-city Birmingham, took my first job at fourteen, joined the military at eighteen, trained as a chef, and paid my way through a degree in Hospitality Business Management by working in telephone insurance sales.

In 2000, I stepped, quite accidentally, into the world of wealth management and then spent more than two decades designing and delivering elite experiences for the world’s wealthiest — from Formula 1 in Monaco, Singapore, and Abu Dhabi, FIFA World Cups in Brazil, Art Basel in Miami, and countless private events and bespoke platforms for UHNW clients across three of the largest global banks. More importantly, the strategy behind peer-to-peer connectivity, delivering to clients’ purpose and passion – and precision empathy became my ‘superpowers’.

Since 2009, I’ve called Switzerland home, and have become a dual citizen. My career has always sat at the intersection of the empathetic communication, personal brand, team development, and high-value audience engagement.

In 2021, I founded TURA to turn everything I’ve learned about presence, performance, and polish into something bigger — a place where individuals and groups can train to communicate with precision, engage with confidence, and embody composure under pressure.
