I’m an entrepreneur, podcaster, former Sales Director, and the founder of The Business Book Club, a fast-growing digital platform dedicated to making business and personal development learning more accessible to everyone.
After 17 years in tech, sales leadership and operations, I’ve built a career defined by transformation: transforming teams, transforming culture, and now transforming how people learn, grow and lead.
Today, my work spans content creation, youth development, entrepreneurship, and building brands that empower people to think bigger — and back themselves, unapologetically.
Helping people learn in minutes what took authors years to write.
I created The Business Book Club to bring the world’s best business and personal development wisdom into simple, actionable, everyday learning.
What started with a single 5-minute summary has evolved into a multi-series platform available across YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and our online learning hub.
The Platform Includes:
- 5-Minute Book Summaries — fast, digestible takeaways anyone can apply
- Icons of Influence — in-depth storytelling on the world’s most iconic leaders & creators
- Leadership Unpacked — a practical series for modern leadership
My mission is simple:
To build a modern, accessible learning ecosystem for real people with real lives, limited time — and big ambitions.
The Business Book Club — Founder & Director
Zankie Creative Ltd — The Company Behind My Brands
Zankie Creative Ltd is the company I co-founded to bring my creative and entrepreneurial ideas to life. It was originally home to Unapologetically You, a bold apparel and lifestyle brand built around identity and self-expression.
While Unapologetically You had heart, creativity and a strong message, we decided to close the brand — not because it failed, but because it no longer aligned with where our passion or long-term vision truly lived.
Closing it wasn’t a setback. It was a strategic pivot.
It created the space for the core brand within Zankie Creative to grow The Business Book Club. Under Zankie Creative, The Business Book Club has evolved into a multi-platform learning hub with a growing audience and a clear purpose: to make business and personal development learning modern, accessible and meaningful.
Zankie Creative supports the strategy, operations, design and content behind the brand.
This evolution reflects my philosophy as a founder: follow the passion, double down on what works, and never be afraid to pivot.
Career Background — 17 Years in Tech & Leadership
Before launching my entrepreneurial journey, I spent nearly two decades at Jigsaw24, one of the UK’s leading technology and Apple-authorised resellers. I held a range of senior roles, including:
- Sales Director (Account Management)
- Sales Operations Director
- Leadership roles in sales strategy, team development & performance culture
I was responsible for restructuring teams, building operational frameworks, elevating customer experience, and driving long-term sales performance.
I’m proud of the teams I built, the results we achieved, and the culture we shaped — particularly around leadership, development and personal ownership.
Entrepreneurship Beyond Content — Hally Homes Ltd
Alongside my wife, I’m also the co-founder of Hally Homes Ltd, a property business focused on contemporary home transformations and residential renovation projects.
Hally Homes represents:
- Our shared passion for design and modern living
- High-quality homes for all people
- Revitalising spaces with character and purpose
A commitment to creating homes people love to live in. We are passionate about wildlife and conservation. Our long term goal is to work within/alongside established conservation projects and eventually create our own. The ambition is for property to bring about positive change.

Values & Personal Philosophy
I believe in:
- Learning from others
- Leading with honesty
- Backing yourself
- Taking action
- Creating spaces where people feel safe to grow
- Bringing personality into professionalism
- Being unapologetically yourself
- Start now, get perfect later
Above all, I believe success is not about titles — it’s about impact, growth and the legacy you build in people.
