I joined Auror in 2024 after returning from 7 years working in London. I’ve come from some larger corporate organisations and I love being part of the team at Auror where every day looks a bit different and the work and decisions I make have a noticeable impact on our team and the wider business. Outside of work, I am a proud Dad of two young boys. On the weekends we love to go out adventuring, often to find a new playground or icecream spot. Thankfully I enjoy running to balance out my serious sweet tooth!
