Reputation consigliere to global leaders. Investment connector. Also funny.

About me

Some people don’t like me… but these people are mad, and not to be trusted.

A maverick and a renaissance man, many people call me a ‘character’ - and whether you think that’s a good thing, or a bad thing, is frankly up to you. If you don’t like laughing (and let’s face it, many people don’t) then you will find me irritating. But what is undeniable is my passion, humour, energy, drive, and endless optimism.

I started my own business aged 16, and have never had a boss - which is just as well, as I am completely unemployable. As long as you don’t count my many failures, I’ve had an unbroken and uninterrupted career journey of huge success - working around the world in politics, law, and business, at the very highest level.

What do I do? Two things, mainly.

I am the guy global leaders call when they are in trouble. It’s increasingly common for CEOs, ultra-high-net-worth individuals, public figures, and political leaders to find themselves unjustly attacked – and often the target of a campaign to ‘cancel’ them.  I’ve been doing reputation repair work for 25 years, and have won multiple awards along the way.

I am also an active investment connector; offering capital placement opportunities to family offices and UHNWIs, and investment finance (debt and equity) to ambitious entrepreneurs to help them grow.

I’ve been sober for 14 years, and vegan for 20 years – and a passionate advocate of both causes. As many in middle age do, I’ve become a keen runner / biohacker over the last few years, in a (possibly futile) effort to fight the flab, and remain physically attractive for instagram.

My wife Heather is an author, and we live with our dogs Billy and Betty on a farm in Buckinghamshire. I spend about a third of my time working in the US, across our offices in Los Angeles and New York.
