My Journey

Over 18 years in CFO and senior finance roles, I've had the privilege of leading financial strategy for organisations across healthcare, disability services, and aged care. This journey has given me deep insight into the unique challenges these sectors face.

Managing budgets exceeding $500 million and delivering more than $50 million in savings, I've learned that great financial leadership isn't just about the numbers. It is about enabling organisations to fulfill their mission while maintaining sustainability.

The healthcare sector is experiencing unprecedented change. NDIS reforms, aged care legislative changes, and the rise of AI are transforming how organisations operate. I have written five books on AI in finance — covering everything from building the data foundation to scaling AI programmes, governing risk, and leading the AI transformation across an entire finance function. Through my fractional CFO services, books, speaking engagements, and courses, I help leaders navigate this complexity with confidence — whether that means building a board-ready technology business case, conducting an AI readiness assessment, or establishing governance frameworks that protect against AI hallucinations.

My approach combines strategic thinking with practical execution. Every recommendation I make is grounded in real-world experience and designed to deliver measurable results.
