My experience of setting up two successful businesses in my twenties led to me being named a Future 100 and Startup 100 entrepreneur. I have been quoted 4 times in Forbes magazine and am a RetailWire BrainTrust expert. LinkedIn named me one of the top 15 most listened to professionals in the UK. Vend ranked me as the world’s 26th most influential professional in retail.
