About me: I love digging into how a business actually runs and finding where cutting carbon emissions also creates value. That has shaped my whole career and led me to London Business School.

I spent seven years at Hilti Group in Asia. I started as a global management trainee, then ran the after-market service team in Hong Kong and built a single service operation across five north Asian markets. My last Hilti role was regional head of sustainability for north Asia, where I set the region’s first sustainability strategy. I then moved to RESET Carbon, where I grew the Hong Kong business, then moved to London to launch the company’s UK and European practice, helping industry companies and their customers cut emissions across their supply chains in Asia.

I came to London Business School to move from operating businesses to investing in them, so I can bring that same lens to climate and energy transition investing. I’m Chief of Staff of the Energy and Environment Club and co-direct the Community Stream of the Social Impact Club.

Outside class, I’m usually swimming, biking or running, or walking my dog.

I’m happy to talk about switching careers from industry, climate careers or doing the MBA alongside your partner.

Three topics I can be approached about: Climate and sustainability; industrials and energy; studying with a partner; home students.
