I’m a serial entrepreneur with multiple successful exits — and a few hard-earned lessons along the way. My career spans industries and continents: from real estate and fashion to politics, construction, and the arts. I’ve built businesses from the ground up, turned around operations, and led strategic growth in the UK, Turkey, the US, and the Middle East. That breadth isn’t just experience — it’s leverage. I see connections others miss, and I know how to turn opportunity into action.

Current Focus

A quarterly investigation into the psychology of fashion, with an even split between academic and cultural inquiry. Our latest issue covers the new generation of avant-garde luxury brands emerging from South Korea.

What I bring

I help established brands understand new audiences in emerging markets, with a special focus on shifting definitions of luxury in rapidly modernizing economies.

Highlights

I’ve conducted numerous color studies for major fashion houses to help predict palettes for seasonal collections. I have contacts with research organizations in over forty countries to deliver a truly international perspective.

I don't do one-size-fits-all. Every partnership is bespoke — based on chemistry, shared ambition, and aligned incentives. Some clients bring me in as a board member or advisor. Others as a strategic partner. A few come for sharp, focused guidance as they scale. But the throughline is always the same: momentum, growth, and meaningful outcomes.
