I love to build stuff and at Spotta I'm really proud to be building an amazing team to make us the world leader in sustainable insect management, through our unique technology. Outside work, I’m (re)building a house. (And a boat, and an awesome electric go-kart for my son).

I direct our brilliant R&D team at Spotta to create new technologies and turn them into the products we deliver. I've spent 14 years working in technology and product development across a range of industries, after a 1st class Engineering degree from Cambridge. I enjoy bouldering and critiquing Indian food.

I am an angel investor in tech and life sciences and support early-stage businesses and scale-ups through mentoring, board roles and coaching. Having held Chair, CEO, COO and technical leadership roles, I have particular expertise in scaling teams and operations, commercial channels, partnerships and fundraising. I studied Engineering at Bristol University, and I've worked in various senior management positions including Team Leader at Cambridge Consultants. I co-founded Inca Digital Printers which dominated the large format flatbed market. After successful scaling and trade sale, I joined Cambridge Angels and went on to invest in over 25 tech and healthcare start-ups where we have enjoyed a number of positive exits.

With over 20 years of CFO experience across a wide range of industries, both large and small, joining a company like Spotta was an easy decision. Having previously Co-founded start-up Inca Digital Printers that was recognised by the Times Tech Track as one of the fastest growing companies in the UK, I recognise a company with fantastic potential and great aspirations for growth. I thoroughly enjoyed my previous start-up experience so more than happy to get another chance to get stuck in to make it happen all over again.

I’ve worked in both big companies and start-ups, helping teams grow in B2B data, analytics and content companies. I love the energy of start-ups, where small teams move fast and put customers at the centre of everything. At Spotta, my role is to bring sales, marketing and sector together to help us grow in a sustainable way. What motivates me most is building collaboration across teams and finding simple ways to overcome challenges as we scale and keeping humour alongside the hard work.

I joined Spotta in 2021 to manage our supply chain and production facilities. Prior to joining Spotta, I spent 5 years at Jaguar Land Rover, building innovative teams to identify and implement new manufacturing technologies and processes. I have a first class degree in Manufacturing Engineering from the University of Cambridge and am a chartered engineer with the IMechE.

An Oxford graduate (1st class in Engineering Science) amongst the Cambridge alumni, I joined Spotta in 2020 from Cirrus Logic, a specialist low power semiconductor company. I enjoy working with low power data processing algorithms, including embedded image recognition. Part of my role is to conduct robust, test-driven development for the embedded platforms we use in our smart pest monitors.

Having founded my own successful tech business I know what a startup needs, and at Spotta I'm back doing what I love - solving problems with ones and zeros! I have a 1st-class degree in Computer Science from Cambridge University, and I joined Spotta in 2022, bringing 20 years experience developing software for businesses large and small, serving some of the most demanding customers in the world.

I joined Spotta in 2022 and bring expertise in entomology, insect-plant interaction, biochemistry, and modelling. I currently lead our scientific efforts, including work on lure selection, trap design, and experimental design and analysis. Before joining Spotta, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Dept. of Bioengineering at Imperial College London, where I investigated insect behaviour and biomechanics. I hold a BSc in Biochemistry & Biophysics from Yale University and a PhD in Insect Biomechanics from the University of Cambridge. In my spare time, I enjoy travelling, taking photos, and listening to music.

I joined in 2020 to work on product design, including design for manufacture and assembly - both of which are key to developing robust, reliable products. I hold a 2.1 in Integrated Design Engineering from the University of Bath, and have experience in designing experiments and developing liquid handling systems such as those used in our lure- dispensing technologies.

I joined Spotta in 2021 as an entomologist. I have a background in the management of insect pests using pheromones. My role involves designing and executing experiments in order to develop effective insect trap designs. I am concluding a PhD in Agriculture from the University of Reading, United Kingdom.

I joined Spotta in 2022 to support the R&D group with testing and prototyping.  I graduated from Sheffield University with an MEng in Aerospace Engineering. After graduation I joined an aerospace company working in a design engineering role.   I enjoy the daily challenges at Spotta, working with cross-functional engineers in the development of our smart monitoring systems.  I also support product deployments at customer sites, giving me first hand experience of our products in the field. I am a keen climber and enjoy bouldering at our local centre.  I also like producing music and playing piano in my spare time.

I joined the team in November 2023 after working for over 10 years in an administrative capacity for other Cambridge technology companies. My role is to support the everyday needs of the growing team. Each day is different and I rise to the challenges that a busy start-up experiences.

I graduated with a degree in Mechatronics Engineering (first class honours) from the University of Auckland in New Zealand, since then I've been working in the medical device industry as a firmware engineer. I enjoy the day to day problem solving and seeing my code do things in real life. I joined Spotta in 2024 to work on the firmware for our smart pest monitoring.

I joined Spotta in March 2024 as a Business Development Manager for global sales. I have worked in the luxury hospitality market both in North America and the UK and have a passion for the industry. I'm always on the lookout for new initiatives, hence why Spotta's innovation solution for the industry was of real interest to me.

I am one of the Business Development Manager's here at Spotta, having joined in July 2025. I’m proud to be part of such an ambitious company and excited about the journey ahead. I’m passionate about sales and helping hotels across the world find the right solutions to help protect their businesses. My experience spans global sales roles across property investment and tech within the hospitality sector, giving me a strong commercial edge and a people-first approach. I’ve also spent several years in Dubai, where I built and led a sales team while working as a property investment consultant, adding valuable international experience to my background.

I joined Spotta in 2025 as an SDR, reaching out to hotels about the Bed Pod's early-detection system. Since then, I've progressed into the role of Commercial Client Development Lead, where I oversee our SDR team, maintain CRM cleanliness, and support a range of commercial functions across the hotel sector. Previously, I led a customer service sales team, which gave me a strong bias for clear communication, process, and results. Hospitality tech intrigues me because anywhere you can prevent a negative guest experience is worthwhile - for customers and staff alike.

I joined Spotta at the start of 2026 as a Commercial Development Representative, and since then I have been speaking to hotels about the BedPod early detection system. As the first point of contact, it is great to hear the interest generated by what we do and how it aligns with the goals of hotels, and their managers, particularly in improving the guest experience, moving towards increased sustainability and safeguarding their reputations.

I joined in 2026 as a Commercial Development Representative,  contacting hotels globally to introduce and discuss the BedPod early-detection system. I am a keen climber and enjoy bouldering. I also like producing music and playing guitar in my spare time.

I joined Spotta in 2026 as a Marketing Executive, and I'm truly excited to be part of a company that is replacing harmful pesticides with smart, sustainable insect monitoring technology that helps protect businesses, people, and the planet. In my role, I support marketing across different areas of the business, working closely with the team to create clear, useful content that reflects what we do and why it matters. I especially enjoy collaborating with different teams and being part of a team that is genuinely passionate about what we do. Outside of work, I enjoy yoga and art. They help me stay balanced and bring a bit of creativity into what I do.

I joined Spotta in 2026 as Production Team Lead, bringing 14 years of experience from working on specialized thin-film pressure sensors. I was drawn to the company by its incredibly positive work environment and its commitment to continuous development. Beyond the production line, I have an extensive background in the motor trade, specifically in classic car restoration and track-day performance tuning. When I’m not in my workshop, I’m usually out walking my dogs or busy with home and garden improvements.
