Who's Behind This

More Than a Number Cruncher

Chartered Accountant (FCA, ICAEW). Big 4 trained at KPMG and Deloitte. Award-winning business leader. Twenty years as founder and CEO across two international businesses operating in 25+ countries.

I've won Business Person of the Year awards, built teams across continents, and sat in every seat. From managing cash flow crises to closing enterprise deals. I know what it takes because I've done it myself.

AscendancyHQ exists because Irish tradespeople deserve better than a tax return once a year and a website that never rings.
