I have recently started to build a portfolio career, which includes investment property management, and have recently founded my own business to inspire others to learn about finance through the medium of sport.

I have returned to the University to collaborate with the School of Sport Exercise and Health Sciences to deliver a unique short course that teaches learners about football finance concepts; leveraging my experience at the top of the Premier League, as financial controller of City Football Group, the parent company of Manchester City FC.

The University has also provided the honour of the title of Visiting Fellow in Sport and Football Finance at the School of Sport and Exercise and Health Sciences, something which I am extremely proud about.

I have plans to continue to invest in and grow other businesses, having discovered a new found energy as an entrepreneur. It is likely these businesses will be linked to sport in one way or another as I strongly believe that sport as a medium for inspiring others is extremely powerful.
