About

I am a digital finance specialist, focusing on microinsurance, mobile money and emerging technology in low- and middle-income countries. An experienced writer, I also run a bespoke business writing workshop for individuals and companies.

My recent experience spans senior roles at the GSMA, the mobile industry’s trade association, and Pula Advisors, an insurtech that provides insurance to smallholder farmers. I have worked as an independent consultant too, in particular for the World Bank and Caribou Digital.

My previous experience includes roles at McKinsey, Willis Towers Watson and the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. 

I have a BA from SOAS, University of London, and an MA from the University of Groningen. In 2020, I became a Certified Digital Financial Practitioner.

I speak French and Swahili, and used to run Paddington Bears Football Club – an amateur Sunday-league outfit.
