Who I Am
I am a seasoned professional with nearly 15 years of experience spanning Business, Inclusive Recruitment, and Cybersecurity sectors. With a unique blend of personal labels - gay, ADHD, and dyslexic - I've managed to harness the power of inclusivity to drive success in business. These identities have shaped me and, in the right environment, have allowed me to achieve outstanding results. My goal is to help you cultivate an environment that fosters such success in your business.
My accomplishments include multiple awards at Reed, the UK's largest recruitment company, inclusive of the Rising Star Award. In 2024, I was recognized by Pro-Manchester with nominations for the Diversity and Inclusion Champion Award and the Innovation Professional of the Year. I also received the Medilink Award for Health Innovation in April 2024 for my Employment Passport with diagnostic capabilities.

Our values
SECURE, DIVERSE, FAIRNESS & TRUTH
TRUTH - we will always be honest about our approach, ours and your process and our progress and potential challenges we may face. To improve anything, you need to work with the truth, not politeness, and that's why it is our great value.
SECURE - you can rely on us to act with the utmost integrity and protect the information of you, your business and the candidates. We are cybersecurity experts, after all.
FAIRNESS - we understand the complexity of many situations, and that's why we are always trying to be fair in our judgment and avoid conscious bias, as in any given case, you always have at least two sides. You never fully know what motivates a person to undertake a particular action. We are all humans, after all.
DIVERSE - we believe in social justice, commitment to communities, and the strength that diversity brings to your team and innovations. We want to be pioneers in promoting diversity and inclusion in any workplace. Our director is gay and neurodiverse who moved to the UK over six years ago, so he perfectly understands these challenges and the importance of diversity.
