I'm the founder and CEO of Sign-Up.to, so everything we do here is ultimately my fault! On a daily basis I look after our strategy, marketing, finance, feature planning and ensuring that we're all working together to provide the best possible service for our clients. I'm usually the one out and about meeting our partners and clients and showing up at as many events as I can!

Outside the office I'm a keen photographer, cook and newly converted fitness nut, currently training for my first triathlon.
