His experience and knowledge has enabled him to establish and maintain key strategic relationships with an array of leading organisations across the UK, Middle East and further afield including leading Tier 1 Real Estate Developers, Local & Multi-National Conglomerates, Government Institutions, Asset & Property Managers, Investment Trusts (REITs), Main Contractors, PMC's and Architectural & Engineering Practices.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my family and playing sports (mainly Golf, Padel, Football & Cricket)
