THE AUTHOR

Founder of Adrych Ltd since October 2014. For more than eleven years I have worked exclusively as an independent consultant, designing, implementing and auditing quality and compliance frameworks for organisations that cannot afford to get it wrong.

My practice spans regulated healthcare, defence medical services, diagnostics, and luxury clinical environments. I have led quality functions at CHKS, Bupa, and the UK Ministry of Defence, and acted as expert advisor to international clients and ISO technical working groups.
